rdfs:comment	ブロック島沖の海戦（ブロックとうおきのかいせん、英: Battle of Block Island）は、アメリカ独立戦争開戦からほぼ1年を経た1776年4月6日夜、現在のロードアイランド州ブロック島沖で、大陸海軍とイギリス海軍の艦艇のあいだで戦われた海戦である。大陸海軍の艦隊7隻は、その処女航海でバハマ諸島のナッソーを襲撃して成功した帰り道だった。イギリス海軍は通報艦のMHSグラスゴーだった。グラスゴーは、海軍代将が指揮する大陸海軍7隻からの捕獲を免れ、逃げおおせたが、かなりの損傷を被っていた。大陸海軍の艦長数人はこの戦闘の行動を批判され、1人は解任された。ホプキンス代将も戦利品の分配など航海全体に関わる行動を批判され、最終的に海軍を罷免された。 (ja) 布洛克島海戰（英語：Battle of Block Island）是美國獨立戰爭期間在羅德島布洛克島外海發生的小型衝突。大陸海軍的埃塞克·霍普金斯準將艦隊，並在當地的英軍軍用倉庫繳獲大批軍需品。返航時，艦隊偶遇英國皇家海軍的。格拉斯哥號呼喚大陸海軍艦艇卡博特號，試圖識別其身份，後來該艦一名水手向格拉斯哥號投擲手榴彈，戰鬥隨著打響。在破壞了兩艘艦艇的轉向裝置後，格拉斯哥號果斷脫離戰場，並成功擺脫追擊，而霍普金斯準將也在數小時後下令中止追擊。雖然格拉斯哥號滿身傷痕，但成功逃離大陸海軍七艘艦艇的追擊，因此歷史學家認為大英帝國在這場戰鬥中取得勝利。事後，大陸海軍數位艦長的表現備受批評，其中一位更被解職，而霍普金斯準將也因為部分違法行為而受到大陸會議斥責。格拉斯哥號返回紐波特後不久，便被送往朴次茅斯大修，原本屬於她的任務則重新分配給鸚鵡螺號負責。 (zh) Бой у Блок-Айленд — ночной бой между эскадрой Континентального флота, возвращавшейся из первого похода, и посыльным кораблем HMS Glasgow, произошедший в ходе Американской войны за независимость.
