Étoile du Roy (litt. "King's Star", formerly Grand Turk) is a three-masted sixth-rate frigate, designed to represent a generic Nelson-era warship, with her design greatly inspired by {{HMS|Blandford|1741}}. The ship was built in Marmaris, Turkey, in 1996 to provide a replica of a frigate for the production of the ITV series adapted from the novels about Royal Navy officer Horatio Hornblower by C. S. Forester. Nowadays the tall ship is used mainly in sailing events, for corporate or private charter, and for receptions in her spacious saloon or on her deck. In 2010 the French company Étoile Marine Croisières, based at Saint-Malo, Brittany, purchased the ship and renamed her Étoile du Roy.[4]

Construction and design

The frigate was designed by Michael Turk of Turks Shipyard Ltd. of Chatham, which was established in 1710.[5] She was constructed of iroko planking over laminated mahogany frames. She has an overall length of {{Convert|152|ft|m|abbr=on}}, and is {{Convert|97|ft|m|abbr=on}} at the waterline, with a beam of {{Convert|34|ft|abbr=on}} and a draught of {{Convert|10|ft|abbr=on}}. The frigate is square-rigged on three masts with a sail area of {{Convert|8500|sqft|abbr=on}}, and has two {{Convert|400|hp|0|abbr=on}} Kelvin TAS8 diesel engines, and a {{Convert|60|hp|0|abbr=on}} bow thruster, as well as four AC generators for electrical power.[3]

The ship was originally fitted with six 9-pounder replica cannons constructed by the naval dockyard of Sevastopol, Ukraine. These guns consisted of a high tensile steel tube encased in moulded alloy to resemble the original weapons, and were designed only to fire {{Convert|400|g|abbr=on}} black powder charges. On 24 August 2001 a crew member was injured after a premature explosion during the firing of a gun, while the ship was taking part in the International Festival of the Sea at Portsmouth. The Marine Accident Investigation Branch were obliged to consult the Keeper of Artillery from the Royal Armouries museum for technical assistance and advice.[1]

Appearances

Grand Turk is familiar as a stand in for {{HMS|Indefatigable|1784|6}} in the TV series Hornblower, although the historical Indefatigable was a much larger ship. She also served in the same TV series as the French ship Papillon. On 28 June 2005 she stood in for {{HMS|Victory}}, Nelson's flagship at the International Fleet Review off Portsmouth (GB), commemorating the 200th anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar.{{citation needed|date=May 2017}}

Film and TV credits

  • Longitude, 2000.
  • Monsieur N., 2003.
  • To the Ends of the Earth, 2005.

Current location

The frigate was purchased by Bob Escoffier of the Étoile Marine Croisières, which already operates a number of traditional sailing ships: Étoile de France, Étoile Molène, Étoile Polaire, Naire Maove' and the schooner-aviso Recouvrance in Brest (in partnership with its owner, the SOPAB). The final sale price was not disclosed.

After being moored in Whitby for over a decade, Grand Turk sailed for her current location in France on 16 March 2010.
