The French brig Carlotta was a brig-rigged corvetta-cannoniera or, corvetta-brig, of 10 guns, launched in 1807 at Venice as Fiamma that served the French Navy as Carlotta.[1] {{HMS|Belle Poule|1806|6}} captured her in 1810 and the British Royal Navy took her into service as HMS Carlotta. She was wrecked in 1812. OriginsCarlotta followed a design by Andrea Salvini and he probably built her; Napoleon was reportedly at her launch. In 1810 she was at Goro-Primaro, the southernmost branch of the river Po.[1]CaptureOn 11 December 1810 Carlotta was sailing from Venice to Corfu when she encountered Belle Poule. Carlotta{{'}}s captors described her as "La Carlotta Italian brig of war of Ten Guns and One Hundred Men".[3] The Royal Navy took her into service as HMS Carlotta, and Admiral Edward Pellew appointed Lieutenant James Oliver to command her.[8] Several British vessels shared in the proceeds of her capture. One prize money notice allocated head-money, ordnance stores, and one fourth of the proceeds of the hull to Belle Poule, hull, stores, and ordnance stores to {{HMS|Montague|1779|2}}, and the ordnance stores and one fourth of the proceeds of the hull to {{HMS|Acorn|1807|2}}.[4] A later notice announced a payment to the officers and crew of {{HMS|Imogen|1805|2}}.{{#tag:ref|A first-class share of the prize money was worth £42 5s 3¾d; a sixth-class share, that of an ordinary seaman, was worth 8s 7d.[5]|group=Note}} FateOn 26 January 1812 a violent gale, together with a strong current, drove Carlotta onto Cape Passaro, wrecking her.[6] Oliver's exertions in saving a cargo of specie and consequent fatigue aggravated a previous wound, costing him the sight in one eye. Still, in 1813 he was appointed first lieutenant on {{HMS|Sultan|1807|2}}.[7] Notes, citations and referencesNotes1. ^1 2 3 4 Winfield and Roberts (2015), p. 219-20.
