Belette (1814); Gannet (1814)

No scale, probably 1:48. Plan showing the upper deck for Belette (1814) and Gannet (1814), both 18-gun Brigs to be built by Messrs Larking & Spong at King's Lynn, Norfolk.

The plan shows the run of deck planking on the starboard side, which is unusual, as it tends to be depicted on larger vessels. It also illustrates the scarph joints of the waterway on the port side and the pattern of the bolts through the beams

Initialled by Henry Peake [Surveyor of the Navy, 1806-1822], Joseph Tucker [Surveyor of the Navy, 1813-1833], and Robert Seppings [Surveyor of the Navy, 1813-1832].
