Le Mars 22 Gun French Corvette

The next corvette I finished is the 22 gun Le Mars 1798. Again, the only information I could find on her was at ThreeDecks.org. From 1798 to 1800 she took the ships Elisabeth, Apollo, Chesterfield, Nostra Senior Lashagas, Lady Harriet, Fly, and Rosabria. On the night of March 31 to April 1, 1800 she was taken by the 36 gun frigate HMS Amethyst. Her corsair captain from 1798 until capture was Alexandre Etienne. She was taken into the Royal Navy as the sixth rate post ship Garland.
