HMS Stork (1756)
- ... that the 10-gun sloop-of-war HMS Stork was originally designed to resemble King George II's yacht Royal Caroline?
- Reviewed: Eastern salient of Java
- Comment: Probably the only interesting feature of this vessel, which had a short and inglorious career in the British and French Navies in the 1750s. The royal yachts were an uncommon template for a ship designed for active service. As a piece of OR (and therefore not included in the article), the copying of design in this case perhaps reflected the inexperience of the Surveyor, who had never designed a Navy vessel before.
