About Le Superbe:
The SUPERBE was launched from Brest's shipyards to join Admiral Villaret de Joyeuse's fleet to fight along side the L'AUDACIEUX, LE FOUGUEUX, LE PATRIOT AND LE TEMERAIRE. Designed by the famous architect Jacque Noel Sane, she had three masts, two decks and was extremely maneuverable. 700 men were necessary for smooth running of this great war-machine with 74 guns. Built in 1708, this third rate French ship was 143 feet long, with a beam of over 40 feet. At 1,029 tons, she carried adequate provisions to remain at sea up to six months. King Charles was so impressed by her majestic size and beautiful ornamentation that he ordered Dean (England's foremost naval architect) to copy her lines and design.
