HMS Galgo (1799)

HMS Galgo was a British Royal Navy gunboat launched in 1799. Details of her service are relatively sparse, but gunboats of this period were typically small, lightly armed vessels primarily used for coastal patrol, convoy escort, and inshore operations. The Galgo, like other gunboats, would likely have been employed in areas where larger warships were impractical due to shallow waters or confined spaces. Records suggest she was active during the Napoleonic Wars. Further information regarding specific actions or her eventual fate requires more extensive research of naval records.
