Dauntless (1804); Valorous (1804); Combatant (1804)

Scale: 1:48. A contemporary copy of a plan showing the body plan, sheer lines and longitudinal half-breadth for Dauntless (1804) and Valorous (1804), both 18-gun Ship Sloops proposed by Mr John Stainforth, MP. They were originally proposed as 24-gun Gun Vessels.

The plan was accepted with alterations, including the addition of a forecastle deck and alterations to the gunports and lower deck. Later in 1805 the head of all three ships was modified. They were then registered as Ships not Gun Vessels.
