When people talk about the famous Battle of Trafalgar, the first ship that comes to their mind is the HMS Victory and her renowned commander, Lord Nelson. The HM Schooner Pickle was one such ship. She did not take part in direct combat, her small size and weak armory leaving her incapable of defending herself. In fact, one blow from the broadside cannons of a ship of the line would have sunk her immediately.
