Mermaid (1761), Hussar (1763), Soleby (1763)

Scale 1:48. Plan showing the Inboard profile plan as proposed and approved for Mermaid (1761), a 28-gun, Fifth Rate Frigate, for building at Hull by Mr Blaydes, and later for Hussar (1763) and Soleby (1763), also 28-gun, Fifth Rate Frigates.
There is annotation on the reverse of the plan relating to when the copies of the draught was sent to various yards.
Note: This plan is not for Daedalus (1780) as she was a shorter ship built to a different design. Confusion had arisen from the name Mermaid.
