Hmmm.....

 

I wonder if they retracted that bold statement after Constitution sent Guerriere to Davy Jones locker?

 

LL

"The Admiralty, realizing the U.S. Navy was stronger than assumed, on July 10, 1813, issued orders to Royal Navy station commanders that British frigates were strictly forbidden to face their American counterparts in single-ship combat. "

 

In the paragraph right above The Pacific: https://www.historynet.com/americas-daring-frigate-captains/

 

And for those of you who haven't read it already, the book 'Six Frigates' by Ian Toll is a very good book that covers the building of American Frigates and their service history through to the end of the War of 1812
