Algemene context
The Amethyst carried 26 guns, was 40 m long, 12.5 m wide, and built at Plymouth dockyard; the Navy sold it for use as a cable vessel in 1869. It was launched 7 December 1844 and presumably saw service in the Royal Navy until sometime after 22 December 1860 when it was lent for use as a cable vessel, before ultimately being sold for that purpose in 1869.
