Шаблон:Infobox ship imageШаблон:Infobox ship class overviewШаблон:Infobox ship characteristicsThe 1693 Programme of fifth rates were derived from the 1689 programme vessels as demi-batterie ships. The concept was to have one tier of ordnance flush on the upper deck for use in all weathers on a freeboard of at least seven feet. The ordnance would be arranged with a minimum of ten gun ports on the upper deck. The lower deck would be provided with four ports for heavier guns that could only be used in calm weather. For added propulsion ten oar ports per side would be provided with a central loading port. Four 32-gun vessels to these specifications were ordered in early 1693 with three to be built by Contract and one in dockyard.[1]
Design and specifications
As with most vessels of this time period only order and launch dates are available. The dimensional data listed here is the specification data and the acceptable design creep will be listed on each individual vessel. The gundeck was Шаблон:Convert with a keel length of Шаблон:Convert for tonnage calculation. The breadth would be Шаблон:Convert with a depth of hold of Шаблон:Convert. The tonnage calculation would be 354{Шаблон:Small tons (bm).[1] The ships would be sail powered carrying a ship-rigged sail plan. Also there was a provision for ten oar ports per side located between the gun ports on the lower deck.[1] Shoreham would be rebuilt to the 1719 establishment for 20-gun vessels. The establishment dimensions were Шаблон:Convert with a keel length of Шаблон:Convert for tonnage calculation. The breadth would be Шаблон:Convert with a depth of hold of Шаблон:Convert. The tonnage calculation would be 374{Шаблон:Small tons (bm).[2][3]
The gun armament initially was four demi-culverins[4][Note 1] mounted on wooden trucks on the lower deck (LD) with two pair of guns per side. The upper deck (UD) battery would consist of between twenty and twenty-two sakers[5][Note 2] guns mounted on wooden trucks with ten or eleven guns per side. The gun battery would be completed by four to six minions[6][Note 3] guns mounted on wooden trucks on the quarterdeck (QD) with two to three guns per side.[1] In the 1703 Establishment the old gun designations would be replaced by a system that designated the guns by the weight of shot fired. The demi-culverins would become known as 9-pounders, the Sakers as 6-pounders and the minions as 4-pounders.[7] Therefore, their armament as of 1703 for Shoreham and Sorlings would be listed as four 9-pounder guns on the lower deck (LD), twenty 6-pounder 19 hundredweight (cwt) guns on the upper deck (UD) with four 4-pounder 12 cwt guns on the quarterdeck (QD). For Scarborough (renamed Milford) and Winchelsea would be rerated as 36-gun vessels with an increase in the 9-pounders to eight guns. The 4-pounders would be removed in 1714.[3]
