Antelope (1802)

Scale: 1:48. Plan showing the outboard planking expansion of the hull and sides for Antelope (1802), a 50-gun Fourth Rate, two-decker.

Initialled by three currently unidentified personnel. None of the initials match those of the Master Shipwrights for Sheerness and Portsmouth for this proposed period. They may relate to the Assistant Master Shipwrights, but this requires further research.

NMM, Progress Book, volume 6, folio 243, states that 'Antelope' was at Sheerness Dockyard between February 1806 and May 1806 to have defects rectified. She was then at Portsmouth Dockyard between February and April 1809 being refitted, and again between February and April 1813. Antelope returned to Portsmouth May to June 1814, and again November 1814 to December 1815 having been fitted for sea and a flag officer.
