HMS Mandarin (1810)
HMS ''Mandarin'' was a Dutch gun-brig of 178 tons burthen (bm) and 12 guns that the British had captured at Amboyna in February 1810.〔Winfield (2008), p.350.〕 She served as part of a four-vessel flotilla that captured Banda Neira. She was wrecked in November 1810.
==Capture==
The British captured a number of vessels during the attack on Amboyna. One was the ship ''Mandarine'', of 16 guns and 66 men, Captain Besman, that ''Cornwallis'' captured on February 3 after a chase of four hours. She had been out for four weeks but had captured nothing. ''Cornwallis'' suffered only one man wounded in the action.〔
Another vessel, captured on 15 February, was the Dutch brig ''Mandurese'', Captain Guasteranus. She had 12 guns and was one of three vessels sunk in the inner harbor of Amboyna. However, the British raised her after the island surrendered. From her description, HMS ''Mandarin'' appears to have been the ''Mandurese'', with confusion arising out of the similarity of her name with that of the vessel that ''Cornwallis'' captured.
