HMS VICTORY is the oldest commissioned warship in the world, and is still manned by officers and ratings of the Royal Navy. Built at Chatham, Kent and launched on 7th May 1765, a first rate of over 100 guns, she was the largest ship ever ordered by the Navy. Her excellent sailing qualities made her a very popular choice for use by admirals as their flagship. The latter years of the 18th century were times of threat and tension for Britain, and these culminated in the sea battle that was to become Admiral Nelson’s, and his flagship HMS Victory’s, finest hour. The H.M.S. Victory is now restored and resting in dry-docks at Portsmouth, England. Many marvel at her beauty and wonderful state of preservation, the result of the extraordinary work lavished on her over the past two hundred years.
