The ''Embuscade'' ("Ambush") was a 32-gun frigate. She served in the French Navy during the War of the First Coalition before being captured by the British. Renamed the ''Ambuscade'' and later the ''Seine'', she participated in the Napoleonic Wars in the Royal Navy.
==French service==
''Embuscade'', launched in 1789, was constructed in Rochefort. Her captain was Jean-Baptiste-François Bompart, a former privateer who fought in the American War of Independence. In 1792, she escorted convoys to and from Martinique, and ferried Edmond-Charles Genêt to the United States. During the early years of the war, she raided British shipping along the American east coast.〔Bowling and Kennon (2000), p.215.〕
''Embuscade'' arrived in Charleston, South Carolina, on 8 April 1793. She brought Edmond-Charles Genêt to take up his post as the French ambassador to the United States. Then on 31 July, she fought and severely damaged at the action of 31 July 1793.〔Bowling and Kennon p. 216.〕 ''Embuscade'' returned to France a year later and took part in the Croisière du Grand Hiver in 1795 as part of Pierre Jean Van Stabel's squadron.
On 7 March 1795 ''Embuscade'' captured the ''Queen'', which was sailing from Tenerife, Canary Islands to London.
