Cygnet (captured 1758) [alternative spelling: Signet]
Scale: 1:48. Plan showing the body plan, inboard profile, and basic longitudinal half-breadth for Cygnet (captured 1758), a captured French two-masted frigate. The plan illustrates the ship as taken off prior to being re-fitted as a three-masted 18-gun Fifth Rate Frigate/Ship Sloop. The pencil annotation is incorrect.
NMM, Progress Book, volume 2, folio 483, and the Dimensions Book, page 160, confirms that this is the Cygnet/Garland of 1758.
