Boats of a squadron of the British Royal Navy cut her out from the harbour of Le Marin, Martinique, on 16 November 1803.
Around November, HMS Saint Lucia recaptured the brig Earl St. Vincent, which had been sailing from Dublin to Barbados, and a Swedish schooner.
Saint Lucia was unable to capture the privateer, which escaped by throwing her guns overboard and sawing down her gunwales.
The seamen were to go into the harbour to cut out Harmonie, while the marines were to attack a battery of nine guns at Fort Dunkirk on the starboard side of the bay to block French reinforcements from massing there.
Drake arrived on the scene and Graves had Captain William Ferris lead the seamen in the attack, together with 16 men from her.
Hermione, of eight guns, had had a crew of 66 men under the command of Citizen Noyer at the start of the British attack.
[2] Lieutenant John Barker was appointed to command HMS Grenada on 23 April for the Leeward Islands station.
Cribb of King's Fisher credited His Majesty's schooner Grenada with having chased Deux Amis into his hands.
Furthermore, when Grenada's commander saw that King's Fisher would capture Deux Amis, he chased and recaptured the sloop Hero, which was sailing in ballast.
[9] On 24 July Grenada captured the French privateer schooner Petite Aricere, of four guns and 35 men.
The enemy vessel finally struck and proved to be the French letter of marque schooner Princess Murat.
After a chase of four hours Grenada was able to capture the French privateer schooner Desirée, of one gun and 24 men.
A four-hour chase later, Grenada captured the French privateer sloop Tigre, of two 6-pounder guns and a crew of 26 men.
On earlier cruises Tigre had considerable damage to the coasting trade of Saint Lucia and St Vincents.
