The Clorinde was a 44-gun Uranie class frigate of the French Navy.
She was laid down as Havraise in 1796, and was renamed to Clorinde before her commissioning in Nantes. In 1801, she was under Emmanuel Halgan.
In February 1802, under frigate captain Pierre-Marie Le Bozec, she was sent on station at Santo Domingo. She was surrendered to the British when Santo Domingo fell, along with Surveillante, and brought into British service as HMS Clorinde [2].
In November 1810, she was part of the squadron that took possession of Isle of France.
