Pouncer, 1797
Type: Gun-vessel ; Armament 12
Purchased : 1797 ; Disposal date or year : 1802
Notes:

15 Sep 1800 a court martial was held on board the Sensible, in Sheerness harbour, to try James Blew of the Pouncer, for desertion, who was found guilty, but in view of his former extremely good character was only to receive 200 lashes - irony alert !!
