Elizabeth appears in the 1801 volume of Lloyd's Register with S. Haws, master, Charnck, owner, and trade London—Cape of Good Hope.

[7] Elizabeth sailed from Portsmouth on 27 June, reached the Cape on 28 October, and arrived at Whampoa Anchorage on 22 January 1802.

Homeward bound, she crossed the Second Bar on 25 March, reached Saint Helena on 11 July, and arrived at the Downs on 5 September.

In 1806 the Bombay merchant Framjee Cowajee sent Elizabeth (648 tons (bm)), to Beale & Magniac, in Hong Kong.

Nine days later she set out again for Madras and Bengal, but continuous heavy gales had repeatedly drove her back up the Channel before managing to anchor on 27 December off South Foreland.

She fired off numerous guns and flares, but those watching on the French shore were powerless to assist due to the powerful waves and wind which would have doomed any rescue attempt.

Near Calais she lost her rudder on a rock, and sprang several leaks, leaving her totally at the whim of the sea, which dragged her further down the coastline.

The British sent the Elizabeth cartel from Chatham with 18 French prisoners but as she approached Calais the batteries there fired on her and she returned to Dover on 4 March.
