HMS Endeavour was a 14-gun fore-and-aft rigged schooner of the Royal Navy, purchased from private owners in 1782 to assist in the British military effort during the American Revolutionary War.[1]
Endeavour's dimensions were small and light in keeping with other vessels of her class, with a gundeck length of 60 ft (18.3 m), beam of 9 ft 6 in (2.9 m) and 118 tons burthen. She was fitted after her purchase with 14 four-pounder guns.[2]
Her purchase cost is unrecorded.[2]
