Havick, 1796
Type: Ship sloop ; Armament 16
Launched : Taken 1796 ;
Disposal date or year : 9 Nov 1800
Disposal Details : Wrecked in St. Alban's bay, Jersey; crew saved. Captain Phil. Bartholomew
Notes:
25 Aug 1798 in Belfast Lough, Doris and Melampus informed by the Havick that three French frigates had landed troops at Killala in the county of Mayo - see p. 58-> www.naval-review.org/issues/1928-1.pdf.
18 Mar 1799 the hired brig Telegraph captured the French privateer-brig Hirondelle off the Isle of Bas. I assume that the Havick may well have been in sight at the capture, as it is noted that the head money for the capture of this privateer, long in dispute with the officers and company of the two vessels, will be deposited in the Registry of the High Court of Admiralty 26 Oct 1818.
29 Jan 1800 Havick and Suffisante captured the French privateers Grand Quinola and Courageux in the Channel.
