The Gibraltar Group of sixth rates were basically repeats of the Maidstone Group. Ten ships were ordered with one of a slightly different design (but basically the same) and another added in 1711, for a total of twelve vessels. Their armament was similar as were the dimensions of the vessels. They were constructed between 1710 and 1716.[1]

Design and specifications

The construction of the vessels was assigned to Royal dockyards. 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 94 feet 0 inches (28.7 metres) with a keel length of 76 feet 9 inches (23.4 metres) for tonnage calculation. The breadth would be 26 feet 0 inches (7.9 metres) for tonnage with a depth of hold of 10 ft 8 in (3.3 m). The tonnage calculation would be 276 tons.[2]

The gun armament as established in 1703 would be twenty 6-pounder 19 hundredweight (cwt) guns mounted on wooden trucks on the upper deck (UD) with four 4-pounder 12 cwt guns on the quarterdeck (QD). The 4-pounders would be removed in 1714.[3]
