Frederica naval action

The Frederica naval action was a naval battle during the American Revolutionary War in which three galleys of the Georgia State Navy defeated a British raiding party off the coast of Georgia. The action occurred on April 19, 1778.
==Background==

The state of Georgia had twice attempted, without success, to invade the British colony of East Florida. In 1778 a third attempt was launched, to be headed by Colonel Samuel Elbert. The catalyst for the invasion was the discovery, in April of that year, that four British ships were sailing in St. Simons Sound. Two of these, the sloop ''Rebecca'' and the watering brig ''Hatter'', were private vessels under contract to the Royal Navy; the other two, the frigate HMS ''Galatea'' and brigantine HMS ''Hinchinbrook'', were official Royal Navy ships.
For defense, Elbert had the galleys of the Georgia State Navy; four of these, ''Washington'', ''Lee'', ''Congress'', and ''Bulloch'', had been underwritten by the Continental Congress and constructed in Savannah between 1776 and 1777. All four were under the command of Commodore Oliver Bowen.
