French ship Téméraire (1782)

The "Téméraire" was the lead ship of the "Téméraire" class 74-gun ship of the line of the French Navy.

She took part in the Bataille du 13 prairial an 2, battling HMS "Russell".

She took part in the Croisière du Grand Hiver of winter 1794-1795, but sustained damage when a leak opened in her hull in the night of the 30 to 31 December, and she had to return to Saint Malo. From 1798, she was in a state of disrepair and needed to be refitted or demolished. She was eventually condemned in 1802 and broken up in 1803.
