The remains of a 28-gun Royal Navy frigate set alight by her own captain and blown up off Charlestown on 25 January 1782 during the Battle of Frigate Bay.
Practical
Position is a rough marker off Charlestown - Dive Nevis says only that the remains lie off the southwest coast near Charlestown; no depth published. Historic wreck: look, don't take. Ask Dive Nevis whether they visit the site.
