HMS Inconstant (1783)

HMS Inconstant was a 32-gun fifth-rate frigate of the Royal Navy, launched in 1783 at Deptford Dockyard. She was designed by Sir John Williams and built by the master shipwright, Mr. Barnard. Her career was relatively uneventful compared to some of her sister ships. While records are somewhat sparse, she served primarily in the Channel and during the early years of the French Revolutionary Wars. Specific details about her engagements, captains, and ultimate fate remain largely undocumented and require further research. Further information is needed to provide a complete account of her service history.
