[5] In early July Turbulent detained and sent into the Downs the Danish vessel Providence, Richelsen, master.

[9] Turbulent had served for only three years in all before she bore the brunt of a Danish attack whilst on escort duty during the Gunboat War.

In the late afternoon the convoy became becalmed off the Danish island of Saltholm, lying between Copenhagen and Malmo Bay.

[10] In the Battle of Saltholm, a large force of 21 Danish gunboats and 7 mortar boats came out from Copenhagen to attack the convoy.

Still, the loss of the 12 ships led the British north country merchants to publish a protest in Hull.

Lloyd's List reported in March 1816 that the Danish brig Turbulent, of Copenhagen, which had been sailing from St Croix, had been seen at Landskrona, surrounded by ice.
