Name HMS Dartmouth Launched 24 July 1693 | Acquired 1695 Name HMS Vigo | |
HMS Dartmouth was a 50-gun fourth rate ship of the line of the English Royal Navy, launched at Rotherhithe on 24 July 1693.
She was captured by the French in 1695. Upon her re-capture in 1702 she was renamed HMS Vigo, as a new ship of the navy had already been commissioned as HMS Dartmouth. Her service as HMS Vigo was short however, as she was wrecked in 1703.
