HMS Subtle (1807)
HMS ''Subtle'' was a schooner that the Royal Navy reportedly captured in 1807, and purchased and registered in 1808. She served in the Caribbean, taking part in several actions, including a small debacle in 1808, and the capture of Martinique and Guadeloupe in 1809. She foundered in November 1812 with the loss of her entire crew.
==Origins==
Based on Admiralty records, Winfield reports that she was the possibly a privateer, possibly under the Danish flag, and sailing as ''Subtle''. Unfortunately, there are no readily available online records that indicate the capture of any Danish (or Dutch - some reports state ''Subtle'' was Dutch), vessel named ''Subtle''. It is possible that she had another name that the Royal Navy changed. For instance, the Royal Navy captured 12 Danish schooners at Christianstadt in the Danish West Indies on 25 December 1807, some of which had names that matched those of serving Navy vessels. It would have been standard Royal Navy practice to rename a capture to avoid duplicating names, reusing the names of recently lost or sold naval vessels. The Royal Navy schooner ''Subtle'' had just been wrecked at Bermuda on 20 October 1807, making her name available.
