Carolyn Pritchett recently sent in this success story:

The picture is of the Foudroyant was an 80-gun third rate of the Royal Navy. She was built at Plymouth Dockyard and launched on 31 March 1798. Foudroyant served Nelson as his flagship from 6 June 1799 until the end of June 1801.

The Foudroyant had a long and successful career, and although she was not involved in any major fleet action, she did provide invaluable service to numerous admirals throughout her 17 years on active service. In her last years she helped train boys in the ways of the sea.

Carolyn bought the oval-framed picture at an open air flea market for $1.00. As the screenshot below shows, the listing closed at $74.99.





Carolyn has shared some great yard sale and thrift store flips with more to come. You can visit Carolyn’s Country Kitchen eBay store here, and her membership website, Treasure Hunter’s Cove here.
