Notable Actions
HMS Boxer has unfortunately not been the best of His Majesty's ships in combat. She handles fine and her crew is one of the best, her guns work just as well as any other ship but there is something off about her. Still the crew would not trade her for any other and though a loser in most engagements she has managed to live up to her name. She has suffered major even critical damage twice and has been in dry dock since January of 1721 but she is ready again to try and turn her luck around.

June 7, 1721 - Due to poor service record and urgent needs of British Admiralty, HMS Boxer was stripped of all useful material and on June 7, 1721 made her last sail out of Port Royal to a point 10 miles south and was scuttled.
