Also the "Battering Flotilla", under the command of Capt. Frederick Thomas Michell, and comprising 55 vessels; gun-boats, mortar-boats, launches with carronades, rocket-boats, barges, and yawls.

Other British

Although James lists these three vessels as leaving England with the flotilla for Algiers, none actually served there.

Ship Guns Commander Notes
Шаблон:HMS 18 Cdr. Alexander Dixie Brig-sloop. Left behind at Gibraltar. Although James refers to Saracen in his account of the preparations for the bombardment, he is in error. By 1816 Commander Alexander Dixie was no longer in command of Saracen, and she was at Bermuda.
Шаблон:HMS 18 Capt. James Murray Brig-sloop. This was probably the vessel left behind at Gibraltar, with Saracen being a typographical mistake for Satelite
Шаблон:HMS 10 Cdr. Thomas Carew Brig-sloop. Only as far as Gibraltar, then returning home with dispatches.

James mentions that a French frigate of 40 guns, named Ciotat, had warned the Algerines of the coming attack.[5] However, there was no vessel by that name in the French Navy between 1786 and 1861.Шаблон:Sfnp Other sources refer to Ciotat as a gabarre or a corvette, and make no mention of her being a man-of-war.
