HMS Aid was a Royal Navy transport ship launched in 1809 at Kings Lynn. She was the name ship of a six-vessel class of purpose built storeships, the only vessels built as such during the Napoleonic Wars.^[1]

Ordered in 1808, she was built by Mr Thomas Brindley at King's Lynn, Norfolk.^[2]

She was converted to a survey ship between December 1816 and March 1817 at Sheerness. Commander William Henry Smyth commissioned her in January 1817.^[1]

On 14 September 1817, while under Smyth's command, she was at Lebida (Leptis Magna), together with {{HMS|Weymouth|1804|6}}. There they loaded columns, marbles, and other antiquities to bring back to England.^[3]

Aid renamed HMS Adventure in 1821.

As HMS Adventure the ship was deployed for five years between 1826 and 1830 in a survey of Patagonia, under the command of Captain Phillip King. The ship was accompanied by HMS Beagle, a slightly smaller vessel (90.3 ft in length), who was on her first of three major voyages. Adventure was sold in Plymouth by the Admiralty on 19 May 1853 for £750.^[4]
