She was built by Custance & Stone at Great Yarmouth and launched in 1806. Like many of her class and the related Ballahoo-class schooners, she succumbed to the perils of the sea relatively early in her career.She was commissioned in 1806 under Lieutenant John Cameron for the North Sea. In May 1808 Crane sent into Plymouth the Danish vessel Justitia.In 1808 she was under a Lieutenant Mitchell, and then under Lieutenant Joseph Tindale.At 7:30pm on 25 October 1808 bad weather drove her from her anchorage at Plymouth. She dropped a second anchor. By 4am she was near shore and got under way to make for the Sound. She returned three hours later to find an anchorage but a squall hit her as she went about. She let go an anchor but struck a rock off Plymouth Hoe. She fired her guns to signal distress, which brought out several boats from the dockyard. With some assistance she was refloated but she went aground again. She sank in deeper water with her starboard gunwale just clearing the surface. Boats picked up all her crew from the water. She was later broken up."@en }
