In-letters and orders received by the Navy Board

We direct you to cause the BONAVENTURE at Plymouth to be fitted there for a voyage to Portugal, and thence to Newfoundland, and victualled for eight months for her middle complement of Men, to which her present number is to be reduced.
All possible dispatch is to be made for fitting and victualling her, and any Men more than her middle complement are to be turned over into the SEAFORD.
