''Goéland'' was the name ship of a two-vessel class of "brick-avisos" (advice brigs), built to a design by Raymond-Antoine Haran and launched in 1787. She served the French Navy for several years carrying dispatches until in 1793 and captured her off Jérémie. The Royal Navy took her into service briefly as ''Goelan'' and sold her in 1794. As the merchant brig ''Brothers'' she appears to have sailed as a whaling ship in the South Seas Whale Fisheries until 1808 or so, and then traded between Falmouth and the Brazils until 1815 or so. ==French service== ''Lieutenant de vaisseau'' Le Tourneur carried dispatches from Brest to Newfoundland and St Pierre (probably Saint Pierre and Miquelon) on a voyage that lasted from 12 June 1790 until 3 November.〔''Fonds Marine'', Vol. 1, p.23.〕 The renowned French naval officer, Jean-Marthe-Adrien l'Hermite served on her as a junior officer on one of these voyages when she escorted the fishing fleet from Granville to Newfoundland.〔Van Hille (2011), p.338.〕 On 12 September 1791 ''Goéland'' was at Brest, under the command of ''sous-lieutenant de vaisseau'' Le Dall de Kerangalet.〔''Fonds Marine'', Vol. 1, p.25.〕 In April 1793 ''Goéland'' was sailing from Cap-Français to Jérémie while under the command of ''lieutenant de vaisseau'' Leissègues de Pennenyum.〔''Fonds Marine'', Vol. 1, p.54.〕 Early on the 16th Leissègues was seeking to enter the bay while searching for a convoy he was to escort when he observed an enemy frigate at the entrance. The British frigate immediately set out to drive ''Goéland'' on shore. At 7a.m. she received her first shots and by 9.a.m. the British frigate was no more than pistol-shot away. ''Goéland'' fired back, but resistance was futile. Leissègues was forced to strike to the frigate ''Penelope''.〔 ''Proserpine'' shared with ''Penelope'' in the prize money, suggesting that she was in company with ''Penelope'', or in sight.
