HMS Trident (1845)

HMS Trident (1845)

HMS "Trident" was a sloop built for the Royal Navy by Ditchburn & Mare in 1845 at Blackwall. [ [http://www.iln.org.uk/iln_years/ilnships1845.htm Illustrated London News 27 Dec 1845] ]

She was a third class iron paddle sloop, and eventually the only ship built to her design, making her a unique class. The builder’s design was approved on 22 August 1843 and "Trident" was launched on 16 December 1845. Her hull cost £17,000, and her machinery another £17,502. Fitting out was estimated to have cost a further £6,864. Her design was commissioned on 2 August 1842 for a steam yacht to replace HMS "Black Eagle", previously HMS "Firebrand". "Trident" was initially rated as a Steam Vessel (SV3) and re-rated as a Second Class sloop on 31 May 1844. She was originally intended to be fitted with a Maudslay 200 nhp side lever engine.

HMS "Trident" was broken up by Castle at Charlton in January 1866.
