Once the end of the Xanthian Order was near, all remaining ships were decommissioned as part of a comprehensive review of the ships, kickstarting phase 4. During this phase, it was decided to scrap the damaged 90-gun ''Voyager'', and convert the 3 remaining 4-gun sloops for commercial use. At this point, the two remaining 24-gun 6th rates, ''XNS Atlas'' and ''XNS Aries'' were drydocked for conversion into 30-gun 6th rates in accordance to new building protocol. This involved substantial widening of the hull to improve stability, and rebuilding of the stern galleries. Mast configurations were also slightly changed to give greater efficiency and for a more realistic look. ''XNS Atlas'' remains the oldest ship in the navy to date.

At this point, the two remaining 24-gun 6th rates, ''XNS Atlas'' and ''XNS Aries'' were drydocked for conversion into 30-gun 6th rates of the [[Atlas class]] in accordance to new building protocol that required upgrading any design from previous years. This involved substantial widening of the hull to improve stability, and rebuilding of the stern galleries. Mast configurations were also slightly changed to give greater efficiency and for a more realistic look. ''XNS Atlas'' remains the oldest ship in the navy to date.
