HMS Prince, one of the most beautiful 17th century English ships was designed by Phineas Pett and launched in Chatham in 1670. It was a first Rate ship armed with 100 cannons and had a wartime crew of 780 men.
In 1672 it took part in its first battle, under the flag of the Duke of York during the third war between England and the Netherlands. The battle ended in an English Victory, but the Prince was so badly damaged that the Duke temporarily changed his flagship.
The Prince survived until 1692.
