The Algerine prize, Algier

The Algerine prize Algier was captured in 1671. She was only in service a couple of years before being wrecked ("cast away on the Black Tayle, June 1673"). Her characteristics, using Pepys' descriptions:

• Length by the keel: 82ft-6in
• Breadth by the beam: 28ft-0in
• Depth in hold: 12ft-6in
• Draught of water: 13ft-6in
• Burden: 344 tons
• Crew in peacetime: 110 men
• Crew in wartime, abroad: 150 men
• Crew in wartime, at home: 160 men
• Guns in peacetime: 26 guns
• Guns in wartime, abroad: 26 guns
• Guns in wartime, at home: 32 guns

It's hard to know how she might have been armed, although we can guess: 18-demi-culverins (9dr), 10-sakers (5-1/pdr), and 4-minions (4pdr), for service at home in wartime. Sources:
