Dominica, 1806
Type: Schooner / Cutter ; Armament 6
Captured by the enemy May 1806 and recaptured June 1806 : See below for details.
Disposal date or year : 1808
Notes:

11 Aug 1805 captured the French privateer Hazard on the Leeward Island station.

25 Aug 1805 captured the French privateer Ravanche on the Leeward Island station.

2 Sep 1805 captured the French privateer Prudente on the Leeward Island station.

21 May 1806 taken into the French port of Guadaloupe and handed over to the enemy by mutineers (per Rif Winfield). She was then fitted out by the French as a privateer for an expedition to Rosseau Bay to cut out British merchantmen.

24 May or 4 Jun 1806, date depending on source, re-taken by the Wasp (the former date from Marshal p. 104, and the latter date per Rif Winfield, so suspect that the latter date has more merit taking into account when she was taken into Guadaloupe).

18 Aug 1806 captured the French privateer Bateuse on the Jamaica station.
