If I remember correctly,
Chesapeake was the final frigate of the original six and also the smallest. It was also one of a kind I think.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Original_six_frigates_of_the_United_States_NavyIf you read through that page, for what its worth, it shows that
Chesapeake was smaller in all dimensions and number of guns to the
United States. Her design was changed when construction was started for various reasons. Originally she was to be a 44-gun ship but wound being a 36-gun ship.
For the life of me I can't remember what the book was called but I did find a book at my library that had plans, hull lines, sail diagrams, the works for all six of the original Frigates. After I returned it the library culled its collection and I think got rid of it. If anyone knows the name of the book please tell me and I'll see if its still there. I could kick myself for not scanning them when I had the chance...
Sorry I can't help further right now.
