The 'Bombay Grab'

The 'Bombay Grab'

Image description

The 'Bombay Grab', a Cruiser of the Bombay Marine, a three masted sloop, with crossed mizen yard, ten gun ports showing, and a low-cut bow with a very heavy, almost horizontal bowsprit above, sailing to the proper right, with topsails, fore course and jib set, over a calm sea. The 'Bombay Grab' is flying a Union Jack in the bows and a pendant-like red ensign. The 'Bombay Grab' was an armed 'cruiser' of the Bombay Marine with somewhere between 20 and 28 guns (the sources differ). It was one of the Bombay Marine's biggest ships, being exceeded only by the Commodore's flagship, a frigate, and took part in the principal engagements in the Arabian Sea including the destruction of the Angrian pirates. Illustrator: Anon c.1780. Source/Shelfmark: Foster 876 Oil painting. 41 by 52 cms.
