Warren Hastings was a three-decker East Indiaman, launched in 1802. The French captured her in 1805 during her second voyage for the East India Company and sold her to Danish owners. The British recaptured her in January 1808,[6] and within a year thereafter she was again in her former owner's hands. She then made several more voyages for the company.
