French ship Cassard (1795)
Cassard was a Téméraire-class 74-gun ship of the line of the French Navy. She was renamed Dix-août in 1798, in honour of the events of 10 August 1792, and subsequently Brave in 1803. Career On 10 February 1801 Dix-août captured the 16-gun cutter HMS Sprightly, which she scuttled. On 27 March 1801, as Dix-août sailed with the fleet of Toulon, she collided with Formidable and had to return to harbour. On 26 September 1805 Indivisible and Dix-Août succeeded in shooting away Swiftsure's yards and masts, crippling her and so capturing her.[2] Swiftsure had two men killed, two men mortally wounded, and another six wounded; the French lost 33 killed and wounded.[2] See main article Action of 24 June 1801. On 4 February 1803, her name was changed to Brave.  She was captured by HMS Donegal on 6 February 1806 at the Battle of San Domingo. She foundered shortly thereafter on 12 April 1806 without loss of life while en route to Britain. Citations
