HMS Prince of Orange (1734)
- HMS Prince of Orange (1734)
HMS "Prince of Orange" was a 70-gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, built to the 1719 Establishment at Deptford Dockyard, and launched on 5 September 1734.
In 1748, "Prince of Orange" was cut down to a 60-gun ship, a role in which she remained until being converted into a sheer hulk in 1772. After nearly 40 years service in this capacity, she was finally sold out of the navy in 1810.
