The cutter ran ashore a few miles north of Camperdown where her crew abandoned her when boats from the ships of the squadron deployed to attempt to bring her off.

[6] Commander John Allen replaced Hammond in January 1799 and sailed Echo to the Jamaica station.

[1] Captain Edward Tyrrell Smith of Hannibal, and senior officer of a squadron patrolling off Havana, instructed Allen on 14 May to proceed to New Providence to re-provision and refill his water casks.

After he had completed this, Allen sailed to stretch between the Dry Tortugas and the Colorados in an attempt to rejoin the squadron.

Echo's sails needed a complete overhaul, and with the squadron nowhere in sight, Allen escorted Amazon to Port Royal.

The British found that they could not catch any vessels at anchor, but they were able to capture a Spanish brig laden with cocoa and indigo that she was carrying from "Camana" to "Old Spain".

She was armed with twelve 4-pounders and was moored about half a cable's length from the shore, broadside on, and flanked by two field pieces, one 18-pounder, and some smaller carriage guns on the beach.

The brig was an American-built French letter of marque under the command of enseigne de vaisseau Pierre Martin, who was ashore.

[b] Admiral Sir John Duckworth, commander-in-chief of the Jamaica station, promoted Edmund (or Edmond) Boger into Echo on 27 January 1803 to replace Serrell.

Roberts gathered some volunteer sailors and took another merchant vessel in pursuit, recapturing Dorothy Foster.

[22] Boger then put Roberts in command of a tender armed with one 12-pounder carronade and two 4-pounder guns, and gave him a crew of 21 men.

When the corvette approached Echo and her convoy, Boger ordered his charges to close around the largest and most formidable-appearing vessel, and had her fly a pennant.

Early on 4 May, the British privateer brig Garland, William Pindar, master, accompanied by a ship, came up and after firing a shot, caused Africaine to strike.

The French commercial agent in Charleston, Jean Francis Soult, sued to have the vessel freed on the grounds that the capture had taken place within the territorial waters of the United States, a neutral party.

In the case Jean Francis Soult v. Corvette L'Africaine, Judge Thomas Bee of the South Carolina District Court consulted maps and heard testimony, the upshot of which was that Garland had seized Africaine more than one league (three nautical miles or 3.452 miles) offshore, and hence outside U.S. territorial waters.

[28] Echo delivered some dispatches for Admiral Dacres aboard Surveillante and then Boger, per his instructions, proceeded to patrol off Curaçao.

Boger deployed his boats and they succeeded in retrieving the lugger, which turned out to be Hasard, a new, fast-sailing vessel from Guadeloupe.

Hawk's master and two crew members were on board Hasard so Boger put them in charge of her with orders to sail her to Jamaica.

which was, by agreement, acting as a tender to Echo, captured two Spanish schooners, Santa Rosa and Nostra Senora del Regla.

The prize money notice also covered a parcel of Spanish grass rope, and bark landed from Echo.

[30] Between 4 and 25 January, Echo captured and sent into Jamaica Eliza Ann (sailing from St Thomas to Santo Domingo), Janet (from Caro Bay), and the American schooner Cornelia (from Curacoa).

[31] Boger was appointed captain of Brave, which HMS Donegal had captured on 6 February 1806 at the Battle of San Domingo.

Echo shared with Surveillante and Fortunee in the proceeds of the capture on 9 July of several merchant vessels laden with sugar.

[34] Echo shared with Surveillante, Fortunée, Superieure, and Hercule, in the proceeds of the capture on 5 July 1806 of the Spanish ship La Josepha, laden with quicksilver.

The "Principal Officers and Commissioners of His Majesty's Navy" first offered "Echo...lying at Deptford" for sale on 12 January 1809.

[2] Echo left Britain on her fourth whaling voyage on 17 May 1818, with Mowatt, master, and destination South Georgia.
