At the Action of 30 May 1798 Vésuve and the French frigate Confiante battled the frigate HMS Hydra, the bomb vessel HMS Vesuvius, and the cutter HMS Trial. Confiante and Vésuve ran aground. The British were able to destroy Confiante but they were unable to reach Vésuve, which was later refloated. Vésuve served at Le Havre under lieutenant de vaisseau Rousseau between 15 nivôse and 23 prairial An XI (5 January to 12 June 1801). On 31 July 1815, Vésuve was decommissioned and hulked in Rochefort. She was broken up in 1830.
