Malartic (1799 ship)

[7] On 10 September 1799 Général Malartic visited the Seychelles to annul the capitulation by raising the French flag.

[7] In July 1800, Malartic sailed for a second cruise,[3] capturing the ships Frederic North, Amboyna, Alkias, and Malava.

[1] Malartic encountered and engaged in an action with the American vessel Rebecca, purchased at Calcutta and sailing for Baltimore under the command of Captain John W. Bronaugh.

The engagement lasted about 2 hours and 45 minutes before Malartic, much battered in her masts and sails, eventually took to her sweeps to escape.

[13][e] The East Indiaman Phoenix captured Malartic on 10 November 1800 in the Bay of Bengal at 20°15′N 91°18′E / 20.250°N 91.300°E / 20.250; 91.300, which is about 200 km SSW of Cox's Bazar.

She had her guns double-shotted, and the troops that she was transporting stayed concealed on the poop until Malartic approached to board.

[1] The Court of Directors of the British East India company awarded Moffat 500 guineas and the officers and crew of Phoenix £2000 to be divided among them for "their gallant conduct in engaging and capturing the ship General Malartic.
