The Var was a 22-gun store ship of the French Navy. On 14 February 1809, sailing North of Corfu under frigate captain Paulin, she was chased by HMS Belle Poule. Var retreated to Vlorë, hoping that the forts of the harbour would aid her; support did not come, however, and Var was captured the next day. Paulin was acquitted of blame for the loss of his ship on 16 April 1814. Var was brought into British service as HMS Chichester. On 2 May 1811, as she sailed under Captain William Kirby, she was wrecked in Madras roads with the loss of two.
