Actaeon (should be Acteon), 1805-16
Type: Sloop ; Armament 16
Taken : 3 Oct 1805 ;
Disposal date or year : 1816
B.M.: 335 tons
Notes:

See Acteon

I note that this vessel is shown in the 1814 Navy List as Actaeon, whereas she would appear to be generally known as the Acteon, and hence this page pointing to the Acteon. I appreciate that the Navy List is usually the bible for this sort of thing, but since this was the first edition of the Navy List thought it might have been a printing error ? And I'm probably ignoring the fact that Acteon may also be a spelling error ;-) ?
