Kite (no date)
Scale: 1:48. Plan showing body plan, sheer lines, longitudinal half-breadth for a single-masted 16-gun cutter called Kite. Note the capstan on the after part of the upper deck.
However, there does not seem to have been a cutter that fits these dimensions in the Royal Navy. The closest is Kite (1778) with 77.6ft between perpendiculars (compared to 76 1/4ft) and 27.6ft extreme breadth (compared with 26 1/2ft).
