On 1 September 1756 HMS Hazard captured the privateer snow Subtile off Lowestoff.

Subtile was armed with 12 guns and had a crew of 86 men under the command of Jean Baptiste Tate.

During the six-hour engagement Subtile's crew twice tried to board Hazard, but the British repulsed them.

Fourteen managed to tunnel out, but one man got stuck and his cries for help alerted the guards, who succeeded in recapturing four men.

Hazard's Prize remained listed but not in service until she was surveyed for the second time on 31 May 1759.
