HMS Bombay (1808)

The HMS Bombay (1808) was a 74-gun third-rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy. She was built at Bombay Dockyard, India, and launched in 1808. Her construction was notable for being one of the few 74-gun ships built outside of British shipyards. This was a significant undertaking, showcasing the developing shipbuilding capabilities in India under British rule.

While details on her active service are scarce and require further research, it is known that she served in the East Indies. Specific engagements and campaigns remain largely undocumented in readily available sources. Further research into naval records of the era is necessary to clarify her operational history and ultimate fate. The lack of readily available information highlights the need for greater historical investigation into the activities of this important vessel.
