Indian Trader was launched in 1791. She made one voyage for the British East India Company (EIC). She was on her second voyage when a French privateer captured her. The British recaptured her and she returned to merchant service, sailing to the Americas. She was lost c.1830.

Career

Indian Trader enters Lloyd's Register in 1792 with John Edwards, master, Brickwood, owner, and trade London–Montreal.[3]{{sfnp|Hackman|2001|pp=131-2}}

Lloyd's Register for 1794 shows Indian Trader{{'}}s master changing from Edwards to Dunlop, and her trade from London–Montreal to London–Bengal.[4]

On 1 May 1794 Captain David Dunlop acquired a letter of marque. Before she was ready for a voyage for the EIC, Wells repaired her.[1] On 25 June Gilbert Ferguson and William Gillett certified to the EIC's Court of Directors that before she, and seven other vessels, had left the Thames, "everything was done, that in our opinion was necessary, to make them sufficiently strong to bring home a cargo from India".[5]

Dunlop sailed from Portsmouth on 11 June, bound for Bengal. However, Indian Trader was detained there for over a month.[6] She did not reach Falmouth until 14 August. She was at Madeira on 5 September,{{refn|Before she left England, the Court of Directors had agreed with Indian Trader{{'}}s ship's husband, William Hamilton, that she would be allowed to stop at Madeira.[7]|group=Note}} and arrived at Calcutta 15 February 1795. Homeward bound, she was at Diamond Harbour on 14 April, reached St Helena on 25 August.[1] On 3 September she sailed from St Helena. She sailed together with {{ship||Boddam|1787 ZEIC ship|2}}, {{ship||Rockingham|1785 EIC ship|2}}, and {{ship||Latona|1789 ship|2}}, and a number of other vessels, all under the escort of {{HMS|Hector|1774|6}}.[8] Indian Tradet arrived at the Downs on 24 November.[1]

Captain Edmund Barker acquired a letter of marque on 5 May 1796. He sailed for Bengal on 15 May. However, in November the French captured her in the South Atlantic. Her captors sent her into Cayenne.[9]

In 1797 {{HMS|Thetis|1782|6}} recaptured Indian Trader as Indian Trader was sailing from Cayenne to Baltimore. Thetis sent her into Halifax, Nova Scotia.[10]

Indian Trader returned to Lloyd's Register in the 1798 volume. Her master was Manlove, her owner was M. Benson, and her trade was Liverpool–Jamaica.[11] Captain Joseph Manlove acquired a letter of marque on 18 June 1798.[2] Lloyd's List reported on 18 July 1800 that Indian Trader, Manlove, master, had sailed from Jamaica for Liverpool, but had to return because of damage to her masts.[12]

Captain James Corless acquired a letter of marque on 26 August 1801.[2] D. Sheepe replaced him according to Lloyd's Register for 1803.[13]
