HMS Dartmouth was a 50-gun fourth rate ship of the line of the English Royal Navy, launched at Rotherhithe on 24 July 1693.
She was captured by the French in 1695. Upon her re-capture in 1702 she was renamed HMS Vigo, as a new ship of the navy had already been commissioned as HMS Dartmouth. Her service as HMS Vigo was short however, as she was wrecked in on the Dutch coast on 25 November 1703.
