Vigilant was a cutter of about 50 tons (bm), belonging to Dunkirk, and under the command of Citizen Jean Winnor Vanderwalle. She was armed with only one swivel gun, though her crew of 35 men had small arms. She had sailed from Ostend the day before and had made no captures.[1] Gunthorpe and Badger brought Vigilant into Yarmouth.[2]
