Roxburgh Castle was launched in Spain in 1803 under another name. She was taken in prize in 1809 and her new owners renamed her. She entered the Register of Shipping in 1810 with J. Bevans, master, J. Pirie, owner, and trade London–Trinidad.[3] Captain John Bevanu acquired a letter of marque on 5 February 1810.[1]

Under Pirie's ownership Roxburgh Castle also sailed to Pernambuco and The {{not a typo|Brazils}}.

Lloyd's List reported on 8 January 1813 that Roxburgh Castle had grounded two days earlier at Gravesend as she was returning from Trinidad. She was gotten off without damage.[4]

The Register of Shipping for 1814 shows Roxburgh Castle with T. Hunt, master, G. Faith, owner, and trade London–Île de France (Mauritius).[5]

Roxburgh Castle sailed from England on 26 August 1813. She was in a convoy with {{ship||General Hewett|1811 ship|2}}, {{ship||Wanstead|1811 ship|2}}, and Windham, which were transporting convicts to New South Wales. Roxburgh Castle was carrying military equipment to the Cape of Good Hope. {{ship||Chapman|1777 ship|2}} was transporting an army detachment to the Cape and Île de France (Mauritius). HMS Akbar provided an escort, at least for the early part of the voyage.[6]Roxburgh Castle was totally wrecked on 31 January 1814 on the coral banks off the coast of Mauritius.[7]
