Talk:HMS Calypso

Cousteau ship
Is it HMS J-026 or HMS J-826 as in Calypso (ship)? --Yuriy Lapitskiy ~ 13:52, 16 February 2008 (UTC)

Other Calypsos
There is an HMS Calypso that touched at Pitcairn Island on March 9, 1848, Captain Henry J. Worth. It is mentioned in the Pitcairn Island Register on that date and in a [Royal Commission Report] in 1975. James Galloway (talk) 16:06, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Too many Cherokee Brigs
We currently have 3 Calypsos of the Cherokee class, with 3 different measurements, one launched as Hyena, renamed Calypso, two named Calypso, renamed Hyena (both canceled in 1831, but from different dockyards): I suspect that something is amiss here...--Stephan Schulz (talk) 22:59, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
