This ship is an English naval cutter of the 18th century and one used as messenger from the Fleet amongst other things, as cutters were generally faster than the more heavy and cumbersome ships of the line.
Fleet messengers carried 12 small guns and one or two very small armaments. Because of their speed and agility, they were also frequently assigned to the chasing of smugglers, who were particularly prominent during the 18th century.
