The recent additions are about a different ship that did not take part in the Penobscot Expedition. The additions have the Connecticut ship commissioned in 1776; the book has it running aground and wrecked on March 10, 1779 (before the Expedition) at Goshen Reef (now Bartlett's Reef) in CT. (Book, page 27)

Compare: The info box has Defence laid down in 1779 (a neat trick for a 1776 ship -- but its origin is sketchy), and the British sink it in Penobscot Bay (where it is found in 1972).

Anyway, the sources don't jive.
