HMS Ardent (1782)

HMS Ardent (1782)

HMS "Ardent" was a 64-gun third rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, launched on 21 December 1782 at Bursledon, Hampshire.

In April 1794 "Ardent" was destroyed when she caught fire and blew up. The only wreckage found were some of her booms, encountered by HMS|Berwick|1775|6 whilst she was cruising in the Gulf of Genoa in the summer of that year. The nature of "Ardent's" demise was made clear by the damage visible. [Ships of the Old Navy entry.]
