There were no hulks among the ships of the First Fleet. Hulks were large ships that had been decommissioned from service in England, and instead were used as floating prisons when the gaols in England became too overcrowded to take more prisoners.
Hulks were used to house prisoners, especially in the 18th and 19th centuries. These decommissioned ships were repurposed to serve as floating prisons, holding inmates in overcrowded and unsanitary conditions.
In "Great Expectations" by Charles Dickens, hulks are decommissioned ships that were used as floating prisons for convicts. They are mentioned in the novel as places where criminals were housed before being transported to penal colonies. The hulks symbolize the harsh penal system and the societal attitudes towards crime and punishment during the Victorian era.
Prison hulks were old, decommissioned vessels moored in British harbours to house prisoners from what were then overcrowded gaols. Many prisoners awaiting transportation (as a punishment, often in lieu of the death penalty) to the colonies (usually Australia, especially after the War of Independence removed the American colonies from British control) we sent to the hulks before starting their journeys to the colonies on (hopefully) more seaworthy ships.
To provide readily available and relocatable accommodation for prisoners when the jails were overflowing and exporting them to America was stopped by the War of Independence, decommissioned ships were used.
