HMS Boyne (1810)

HMS Boyne was a 98-gun second rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, built by Nicholas Diddams at Portsmouth Dockyard[3] and launched on 3 July 1810 at Portsmouth.

[1] On 12 February 1814 she took part with HMS Caledonia in a hot action against the French line-of-battle ship Romulus off Toulon; the French 74 managed to escape to Toulon by sailing close to the coast to avoid being surrounded.

[4] In 1826 she was cut down (razeed) to become a two-deck, 76-gun third-rate ship of the line.

On 22 November 1859 she was renamed HMS Queen Charlotte and paid off the following month before being broken up from December 1861.
