HMS Flora
text:
Five ships of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS Flora: HMS Flora was a sloop ordered in 1755 but later cancelled.
HMS Flora was a 32-gun fifth rate, previously the French ship Vestale. HMS Unicorn captured her in 1761 but the Royal Navy scuttled her in 1778 to avoid capture. The Americans salvaged her and she became a letter of marque. The Americans sold her to the French and she became the French privateer Flore in 1784. She was then recaptured by HMS Phaeton in 1798 and sold.
