He was a midshipman in the ‘Alexander’ in 1780 and in the ‘Agamemnon’ the follow year. He was promoted lieutenant on 24 December 1783; to command the ‘Lark’, 16 guns, on 14 March 1794; and captain on 6 April 1795. He was appointed to the ‘Braave’ (ex-Dutch, 40 guns) at the Cape in April and to the ‘Impérieuse’, 38 guns, in January 1799, returning from duties in the East Indies in June 1802. He commissioned the 64-gun ‘Raisonnable’ in April 1805 and saw action off Cape Finisterre on 22 July that year. He then joined Sir Home Riggs Popham in South America. He was then employed on operations in the Indian Ocean, notably in Mauritius, and in the Mediterranean, where commanded the ‘America’, 74 guns, until October 1814. He was made a baronet on 4 December 1813, promoted rear-admiral on 4 June 1814, and made KCB on 2 January 1815. In 1815 he was briefly in the Mediterranean with his flag in the 98-gun ‘Impregnable’.
