		The actions off Brest and Finisterre were deemed unimportant at that time, though HMS THUNDERER was certainly present, as she was at the failed attempt to force the passage of the Dardanelles in 1806, which disaster was similarly not commemorated officially.
		This THUNDERER was designed by Sir William Symonds, and she was a fine example of his high-sided Symonite battleships, whose chief design feature was that their wooden ribs were interlaced diagonally, and their hull and deck planking was also built up of alternating diagonal layers, and bound with iron knee-brackets.
		THUNDERER herself was re-equipped with long-calibre 10" breech-loaders, and settled down in her old age to become a favourite of the Fleet: King George V served in her for a while as Lieutenant Prince George of Wales.
