HMS Prince

Crimean War, Great Storm of 1854: The storeship foundered in the Black Sea off Balaklava, Russia, with the loss of 144 of her 150 crew. She was one of many ships lost in the anchorage when a storm with hurricane-force winds arrived. While she had both steam and sail, she had to cut away her masts due to the power of the storm and her mizzen mast rigging fouled her propeller, rendering her steam power useless. She was valued at £150,000, and her cargo – stores for the winter siege of Sevastopol – at £500,000.[5][6]

She was one of many ships lost in the anchorage when a storm with hurricane-force winds arrived. She had been ordered out of the harbour a few days before the storm by the Admiralty agent in spite of energetic protests by her commanding officer, Captain Lewis, about the danger to her. She became a total loss after first her starboard anchor chain, then her port chain parted in the violent storm. Her cargo of 900 long tons (914 tonnes/metric tons) of gunpowder also was lost.[2][5][6]
