HMS Daphne was launched at Topsham, England in 1806. During her naval career Daphne operated primarily in the Baltic where she took part in one notable cutting-out expedition, and captured one small privateer and numerous small Danish merchant vessels. In 1816 the Admiralty sold her after the end of the Napoleonic Wars and she became a merchant ship, while retaining the name Daphne. She made one voyage to Australia in 1819 transporting convicts. Thereafter she traded with India and was last listed in 1824.

Naval career

Captain Francis Mason commissioned Daphne in July 1806 and sailed her for the River Plate on 7 JulyШаблон:Sfnp There she took part in Commodore Home Riggs Popham's ill-fated expedition to capture Buenos Aires. On 6 January 1807 Daphne was in company with Шаблон:HMS and Шаблон:HMS at the capture of Ann, Dennison, master.[1]Шаблон:Efn Daphne had one man lightly wounded at the capture of Montevideo on 3 February 1807.[2] She returned to England in December 1807.Шаблон:Sfnp

She then served in the Baltic during the Gunboat War. On 23 April 1808 boats from Daphne and Шаблон:HMS, supported by the brig Шаблон:HMS, drove ashore a Dano-Norwegian convoy at Flodstrand, near The Skaw on 22 April. The convoy was taking supplies for the relief of Norway as a result of food shortages that had occurred there after the British had begun their blockade between Denmark and Norway in 1807. The British went in under heavy fire from the shore and a castle there and brought out five brigs, three galliots, a schooner and a sloop (totalling some 870 tons burthen), for the loss of five men wounded, four on Daphne and one on Tartarus.[3] In November there was a preliminary disbursement of £10,000 in prize money for the captured vessels.[4] On 20 May Daphne and Tartarus captured the Danish brig Fisken.[5]

Daphne and Шаблон:HMS (or Шаблон:HMS) were in company on 23 June at the capture of the Danish vessels Roland, Twin Brothers (Twee Broeders), and Seaman (Samen).[6]Шаблон:Efn

On 4 August Daphne captured Karen Refine.[7] Four days later Daphne captured the Danish naval schooner Acutif (or Actif), and drove on shore a cutter of four guns. Acutif, which was under the command of Second Lieutenant Evert Andersen, was pierced for 12 guns but had only eight long 3-pounders mounted. She threw two of them overboard during the six-hour chase before she struck. She and the cutter had left Christiansand three days earlier.[8]

Captain William Roberts took command in August 1808. On 30 August Daphne and Шаблон:HMS captured a Danish vessel of unknown name. Prize money was paid in March 1819.Шаблон:Efn

On 18 September Daphne captured the ketch Drooning Margaretha.[9] Between 18 September and 5 October, in addition to Drooning Magaretha, Daphne captured the galliots Good Hope, Hofnung, Elizabet Katherine, and three boats laden with grain.[10][11]

Captain Philip Pipon replaced Roberts later in September.

On 21 July 1810 Daphne captured Good Hofnung and Pluto.[12]Шаблон:Efn Then on 3 August Daphne and Шаблон:HMS were in company at the capture of the Danish vessels De Freed and Elizabeth.[13] Then on 27 September Daphne and Шаблон:HMS shared in the capture of the Danish schooner Toujours Fidele.[13]

On 28 May 1811 Daphne captured Anna Margaretha Dorothea.[12] On 7 June Daphne captured Nije Prowe.[14] Daphne, Шаблон:HMS, Шаблон:HMS, and Шаблон:HMS were in company on 7 July at the capture of Die Hoffnung.[15] Daphne and Urgent were in company on 11 July at the capture of Danish Transport №38.[12]

Between 27 March and 8 April 1812, Шаблон:HMS captured Hans Ulrick, Eolus, Neptunus, Thygessen, Falken, Enighed, Caroline, and Enigheden. Plover shared the proceeds with Daphne, Pyramus, and Raleigh by prior agreement.[16] On 21 April Daphne captured Catherina.[17]

In March 1813 Captain James Green assumed command. Daphne then served as the flagship for Rear-Admiral Sir George Hope in the Baltic.

The "Principal Officers and Commissioners of His Majesty's Navy" offered "Daphne, of 22 guns and 540 tons", lying at Deptford, for sale on 11 January 1816.[18] Daphne was sold at Deptford on 15 February 1816 for £2,300.Шаблон:Sfnp

Merchant career

Daphne appears in Lloyd's Register of 1816 with Appelby, master, Blanshard, owner, and trade London–Île de France.[19]

Daphne left Port Jackson on 3 June 1818 bound for Calcutta.[20]

Captain Hugh Mattison and surgeon Robert Armstrong sailed from Cork, Ireland on 28 May 1819, bound for Sydney, New South Wales. Daphne sailed via Teneriffe, arriving on 21 September 1819.Шаблон:Sfnp Despite the stop in Teneriffe, the voyage took only 116 days.Шаблон:Sfnp She had embarked some 180 male prisoners and 178 disembarked in Sydney.Шаблон:Sfnp Men from the 46th, 48th, and 87th Regiments of Foot provided the guard detachment under the command of Captain Brooke.[21] On 14 October 1819 Daphne sailed from Port Jackson for Bengal.Шаблон:Sfnp

Lloyd's Register for 1821 shows DaphneШаблон:'s master changing from Matteson to Chatfield. Her trade became London–India or London–Madras.

In mid-1821 in the Atlantic Daphne, which was on her way to Madras, encountered the merchant ship Шаблон:Ship, which was on her way to Bombay. The weather being dead calm, Captain Greig spent a day on Daphne and had a "Most excellent dinner".Шаблон:Sfn On 22 July 1821 Blendan Hall was wrecked at Inaccessible Island, leaving her passengers and crew marooned for some six months.

On 16 May 1822 Daphne, Arthur A. Chatfield, master, H.

A report on 28 August 1823 from a vessel arrived at Cowes stated that the vessel had fallen in with Daphne sailing from Batavia to Cowes. Daphne had damage to her sails and having "strained much by a heavy gale of wind off the Cape of Good Hope" that lasted 32 days.[23]
