French frigate Rubis (1812)
The ''Rubis'' was a 40-gun ''Pallas''-class frigate of the French Navy.
On 25 November 1812, under Commander Louis-François Ollivier, ''Rubis'' sailed from Nantes along with ''Aréthuse'' (Captain Pierre Bouvet) to intercept British trade off West Africa. In January, having captured a Portuguese ship, ''La Serra'', they reached Cap-Vert.〔William James, ''The Naval History of Great Britain from the declaration of war by France in February 1793 to the accession of George IV in January 1820 : with an account of the origin and progressive increase of the British Navy (New edition in Six volumes)'', Volume VI, pp183-190, R Bentley, London, 1837.〕
On 27 January 1813, ''Aréthuse'' intercepted the brig HMS ''Daring'' (Lieutenant Pascoe) off Tamara. Released prisoners reported the presence of the French frigates, prompting the departure of HMS ''Amelia'' (Captain Frederick Paul Irby).
In the night of 5 February, a storm hit ''Rubis'' and ''Aréthuse'' while at anchor; both frigates broke their cables and ''Rubis'' was thrown ashore, whole ''Aréthuse'' managed to sail clear of the coast into open water. Efforts to refloat her the next day proved futile, and she was abandoned by her crew, who embarked on the prize ''Serra'', and scuttled by fire. ''Aréthuse'' fought the Action of 7 February 1813 with HMS ''Amelia'' the next day, and after the stalemate with her opponent, returned on the site of the wreck to rapatriate the crew to France.〔(Les bâtiments ayant porté le nom de ''Rubis'' )〕
