It does have a surprising number of gunports for a vessel that carried only five guns on each side. And someone messed up with flying a red commissioning pennant while wearing a white ensign.

When I was constructing a presentation on William Bligh, I really struggled to find a picture of HMS Providence, his lead ship for the Second Breadfruit Expedition.
