HMS AGAMEMNON model

HMS AGAMEMNON

HMS Agamemnon was a Royal Navy third-rate ship of the line with an armament of 64 guns. She was built at Bucklers Hard on the Beaulieu River in the New Forest, was launched on 10 April 1781, and served until 1809 when she was lost after running aground on a shoal in the mouth of the River Plate. In 1793, Agamemnon was under Captain Horatio Nelson and sent out to join the Mediterranean Fleet. It was during this command that Nelson lost the sight of his right eye at the siege of Calvi, Corsica, in 1794.

For three of the most crucial decades of British naval history, HMS Agamemnon was at the center of events, fighting at the Battle of the Saintes, the Battle of Copenhagen and Trafalgar. In the Battle of Trafalgar, she forced the surrender of the Spanish four-decker Santísima Trinidad. Later, she served in the West Indies, participating in the Battle of Santo Domingo, and then in South American waters.

HMS Agamemnon is remembered as Horatio Nelson's favorite. He was very fond of the ship and described her as “without exception the finest 64 in the service.” He was her captain for 39 months.

The HMS Agamemnon model is truly beautiful. Gave it to Dad for Father's Day. He's enamored by it. Your ships are the best and arrive in perfect condition. I would love to get HMS Victory from you, but understand from previous correspondence that it is not always available. Would you let me know when you have one to sell? I have a spot already picked out. (And P.S. the illumination feature is really cool.) Best regards, David F.
