HMS Captain (1743)

HMS Captain (1743)

HMS "Captain" was a 70-gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, built according to the 1733 proposals of the 1719 Establishment at Woolwich Dockyard, and launched on 14 April 1743.

In 1760, "Captain" was reduced to a 64-gun ship, and in 1777 she was converted to serve as a storeship. "Captain" remained in this role until she was broken up in 1783.
