HMS Victory was laid down in 1759 and completed in 1765. She was a first rate ship of the line and has fought in the two battles of Ushant,the battle of cape Spartel,the battle of Cape St Vincent and the battle of Trafalgar,in all of them she served as flagship!!!She continued active service until late 1812 when she was decomissioned and eventually preserved in dry dock at portsmouth naval dockyard and is open to the public.
That's all for now
