Шаблон:Infobox ship imageШаблон:Infobox ship careerШаблон:Infobox ship careerШаблон:Infobox ship careerШаблон:Infobox ship characteristicsHMS Curlew was the mercantile sloop Leander, launched at South Shields in 1800. The Royal Navy purchased her in 1803 and named her Curlew as there was already a Шаблон:HMS in service, and the Curlew name was available. Curlew was a sloop of 16 guns. The Navy sold her in 1810 and she returned to mercantile service as Leander. On her first voyage to the West Indies a French privateer captured her in a single-ship action; she was lost shortly thereafter.
Merchantman Leander
Leander first appeared in Lloyd's Register (LR) in 1801.[1] On 12 April 1801 a gale forced her aground at Torbay while she was on her way from London to Demerara.[2]

HMS Curlew
Between July and 27 September 1803, Curlew was at Deptford being fitted for naval service. Commander James Murrey Northey commissioned her in August for the North Sea.Шаблон:SfnpШаблон:Sfn
On 2 April 1804 Curlew, sloop of war, reportedly sailed from the North Seas station with a squadron, and store ships, to Boulogne.[3] Two days later, Curlew recaptured Stert, of Cardiff, William Pettigrew, master.[4] Pettigrew reported, when he reached The Downs, that the privateer that had captured him off Dungeness had that same day taken nine vessels that she had sent to Dunkirk.Шаблон:Refn
Early in the year the Naval Chronicle noted that Curlew was "At present with the North Sea convoy."[5] During the year Curlew escorted convoys and captured vessels, and performed errands.[6]
In 1805 Curlew escorted a convoy to Newfoundland.Шаблон:Sfnp
Between October 1806 and September 1807, Curlew was at Sheerness, undergoing fitting out. Commander Thomas Young replaced Northey in November 1806, commissioning Curlew for the North Sea.Шаблон:Sfnp
On 13 October 1807, Abraham Lowe was promoted to Commander into Curlew,[7] an appointment that the Admiralty confirmed. Lowe had served as First Lieutenant to Admiral Gambier in Шаблон:HMS at the second battle of Copenhagen.Шаблон:Sfn However, the appointment only lasted until December 1807.Шаблон:Sfnp
Between June 1808 and April 1809, Curlew was at Woolwich, fitting out for the Baltic.<Шаблон:Sfnp It is not clear where Curlew was or who her commander, if any, was between December 1807 and June 1808.
In late 1808 Commander John Tancock returned from the West Indies after an attack of yellow fever; he had been captain of Шаблон:HMS. In April 1809 Tancock assumed command of Curlew on the recommendation of Sir James Saumarez.[8]
Under Tancock's command, Curlew protected British trade to and from Malmo and Gottenburg through the Sound. During this service, her boats captured seven Danish vessels carrying provisions to Norway. Five of these were:[9]
- Ingeberg Regina (21 October)
- Castrup (same date)
- Emanuel (22 October)
- Hoffnung (same date)
- Sloop, Name unknown (25 October)
Earlier, Curlew had captured, on 14 and 15 October, Hoffnung and Jussrow Margaretha.[10] These two vessels may be Hoffnung and unknown named sloop in the list above.
On 10 November Curlew captured another Danish vessel of unknown name.[11]
Disposal: After Curlew returned from the North Sea she was found to be defective and was paid off.[8] The "Principal Officers and Commissioners of His Majesty's Navy" offered "Curlew Sloop, lying at Sheerness", for sale on 25 June 1810.[12] She sold there on that day.Шаблон:Sfnp
Leander
Leander returned to mercantile service. Lloyd's Register for 1810 showed her with P. Main, master, Inglis & Co., owner, and trade London–Honduras.[13]
On 1 November 1810 Leander encountered the French 4-gun privateer Шаблон:Ship, of Saint-Malo. An engagement of about a half-hour followed during which men from Speculateur boarded Leander. Captain Main, two mates, and a seaman were killed, and six men were wounded. On Speculateur of her crew of 55 men, one was killed and two wounded. Leander was reportedly taken into Figuerra.[14] A report a week later stated that Leander had been lost on her way into Tréguier, Côtes du Nord.[15] A third report about a month later confirmed that it was Leander that had been captured and lost near Lorient.[16]
