French ship Conquérant (1801)

Conquérant was a 74-gun ship of the line of the French Navy.

She was built in Cartagena (Spain) in 1791 as a 74-gun ship under the name Conquistador, sold to France in 1801 and renamed Conquérant. From December 1801 to January 1802, her guns where reduced from 74 to 66 in Brest (by Tupinier, S ing.).

In May 1802, under Captain Malin, Conquérant left France with the 77th demi-brigade and a Polish Legion (total 1,600pax), bound for to Hispaniola (Sainto Domingo) to support the French troupes against the Haitian Revolution. A day after she left France, she was damaged by a storm. The Conquérant arrived in Hispaniola the 14th July 1802 with the troops; and immediately left with deportees (such as Rigaud). She returned safely to Brest in August 1802.

On 21 September 1802, she was disarmed in Brest.

She was stricken from the lists in 1804.
