Everything about Master Of The Fleet totally explained
In the
Royal Navy, the rank of
Master of the Fleet denoted the
sailing master of a fleet
flagship. Examples include
John Bowen (Master of the Fleet during the
Glorious First of June 1794),
Ian Hogg, and
John H. D. Cunningham. Even when the rank of Sailing Master was renamed
Navigating Officer and changed from that of a
warrant officer to a
commissioned officer, the title of Master of the Fleet was retained for a flagship's Navigating Officer, right up until after the
Second World War.
The title has been used outside the Royal Navy, such as in
Ultramarines and other science fiction, and for the captain of the
Belle of Louisville.
