Returned to her original name, Wilhelmina was converted into a troopship and spent the bulk of her career in the East Indies.

[2] In 1798, she was part of the Batavian contribution to French efforts to support a rebellion against British rule in Ireland by the Society of United Irishmen.

[5] Sirius had been stationed off the Texel to watch for Batavian movements and intercept any ships of smaller or equal size entering or leaving the waterway.

At 09:00 Sirius came alongside Waakzaamheid and fired a gun at her, prompting van Neirop to strike his colours immediately.

[6] The two ships exchanged broadsides for half an hour, as Pletz attempted to maneuver out of King's range.

She carried troops for General Ralph Abercromby's landing at Abū Qīr, in the face of strenuous opposition.

[2] In September Whilhelmina stopped briefly at Hambantota, Ceylon, where she dropped off an eight-man detachment from the Royal Artillery, who reinforced the British garrison there and later helped it repel a Kandian attack.

[8] On 9 April 1804 Wilhelmina was escorting the country ship William Petrie to Trincomalee when she sighted a strange sail.

Light winds meant that the engagement did not begin until 11 April, when both ships opened fire, exchanging broadsides and attempting to tack around to rake their opponent.

[14] In 1847 the Admiralty awarded the Naval General Service Medal with clasp "San Fiorenzo 14 Feby.
