Fly-class brig-sloop
The Fly class were built for the Royal Navy as a class of 16-gun brig-sloops; an extra two carronades were added soon after completion. The class was designed by one of the Surveyors of the Navy - Sir John Henslow - and approved in 1805. The Admiralty ordered five vessels to this design in January 1805; it ordered two more in the summer, although this final pair were planked with hulls of pitch pine ("fir") rather than the normal oak used in the first five.
