HMS Imogen was a Royal Navy 18-gun Cruizer-class brig-sloop built in 1800. She was well-regarded for her speed and agility, serving in various missions and capturing enemy vessels during the Napoleonic Wars. Imogen participated in the blockade of Toulon, engaged in the capture of Genoa, and was involved in a successful attack on French gunboats in the Gulf of Genoa. She also played a role in the capture of the French privateer Jeune Richard. However, Imogen's service was cut short when she wrecked off the coast of Catalonia in 1804. Despite her relatively short career, HMS Imogen made a significant impact during her time in service and was remembered for her contributions to the Royal Navy's operations in the Mediterranean.
