In this section you will find, amongst others, an almost complete listing of all ships serving the Royal Danish/Norwegian Navy from 1801-1814 and the Royal Danish Navy (RDN) from 1814 to the present day.

The Fleet Lists gives you a complete survey of all known named ships in this period; however a number of unnamed ships and vessels, Canon Jollies, Cannon Shallops etc. are not incorporated into this first edition.

Later on, I will try to incorporate specifications of all known ships during this period, including photos or drawings, details and history of every ship.

Ships Specifications

This section will bring you more detailed information of the ships of the RDN, initially on the ships involved in the stories on this website.

Hopefully, at a future day, you may find a complete listing of the ships of the RDN serving during the timeline from 1801 to the present day.

You may also find more specifications on most of the foreign ships involved in the event unfolded on this website, either friends or foes.
