About BERN

Achilles was a merchant vessel launched at Sunderland in 1781, probably under another name. She traded widely, particularly to the West Indies. She made one voyage for the British East India Company (EIC). She was also the victor in 1799 in a sanguinary single-ship action against a French privateer. She herself fell victim in 1801 to a French privateer.
