HMS St George, sometimes written as HMS George,[1] was a 42-gun great ship of the English Royal Navy, built by Andrew Burrell at Deptford and launched in 1622.[1] By 1660 her armament had been increased to 56 guns.[1] It finally increased to 60 guns. St George was hulked in 1687,[1] and sunk as a blockship at Sheerness in 1697.
Saint George was the flagship of Robert Blake during the Anglo-Spanish War, and where, during the First Anglo-Dutch War, he had lost his life on his journey back to England.[2][3]
