The Nelson class consisted of three 120-gun, first-rate ships of the line built for the Royal Navy during the 1810s, Nelson, St Vincent, and Howe. The ships spent the bulk of their service in ordinary or on secondary duties like stationary flagships for various administrative positions. Nelson spent her entire career in various ports and never saw active duty at sea. She was the only one of the sisters to be converted to steam power. After her conversion in 1860, she became a training ship in 1867 for the government of Victoria, Australia, and was sold out of service in 1898. The ship was subsequently hulked and was eventually sold for scrap in 1928. Howe served with the Mediterranean Fleet in 1840–1843 and again in 1847–1850. The ship was broken up in 1854.
