HMS Vanguard was a 90-gun second-rate ship of the line of the Royal Navy, built at Portsmouth Dockyard and launched in 1678. She ran onto Goodwin Sands in 1690, but was fortunate enough to be hauled off by the boatmen of Deal. Vanguard took part in the Battle of Barfleur as part of Edward Russell's fleet, and then in the following action at La Hougue when French ships were burned in 1692. Duke was broken up in 1769.
