HMS Bombay

HMS Bombay was a 38-gun fifth-rate frigate of the Royal Navy. She was originally the Bombay Marine frigate HCS Bombay, launched at the Bombay Dockyard in 1793. The Royal Navy purchased her in 1805 and renamed her HMS Bombay. She served with the Royal Navy under that name until 1 July 1808, when she became HMS Ceylon. Ceylon was briefly captured by the French Imperial Navy at the action of 18 September 1810 but was recaptured by the British in the same engagement. She was sold at Malta in 1857 and broken up in 1861.
