Scale: 1:48. Plan showing the inboard profile for Canopus (1798), a captured French Third Rate, fitted as a 80-gun Third Rate, two-decker and undergoing repair at Plymouth. Between March 1814 and March 1815 Canopus underwent a large repair at Plymouth Dockyard. This plan was altered and a copy sent back to Plymouth in November 1814.
