The French gun-vessel ''Eclair'' was one of 20 chasse-marées built in 1785 in southern Brittany for use as service craft in harbour construction at Cherbourg. In 1793 Martin or Jacques Fabien converted ten of them into ''chaloupes-canonnières'' (gun-vessels). One of these received the name ''Eclair''. Sir Richard Strachan's squadron captured her in 1795 in Cartaret Bay, and the Royal Navy took her into service as HMS ''Eclair''. She then sailed to the West Indies where she was probably out of service by 1801. In 1802 she was hulked under the name HMS ''Safety''. Shen then served as a prison ship at Jamaica around 1808 to 1810. she may have been sold at Tortola in 1817/18, but in 1841 or so was brought back into service there as a receiving hulk. She was broken up in 1879. ==French service== Between September and November 1793, the chasse maree that became ''Eclair'' was converted to a lugger and armed with three 18-pounder guns.〔 Between 11 October 1794 and 30 December 1794, ''Eclair'' was under the command of ''enseigne de vaisseau non entretenu'' Bonnaire. She escorted a convoy from Barfleur back to her station at Cherbourg roads.〔''Fonds Marine'', p.92.〕 Then between 30 January 1795 and 29 April she was in the Cherbourg roads under the command of ''enseigne de vaisseau non entretenu'' Duport.〔''Fonds Marine'', p.150.〕
