HMS Imogene was a Royal Navy Cruizer-class brig-sloop launched in 1831. The ship was armed with 16 guns and had a complement of 120 officers and men. Imogene was involved in various missions, including anti-slavery patrols off the coast of Africa and service in the Mediterranean. In 1839, the ship captured a slaver carrying 961 slaves, for which the crew received prize money. Imogene was also involved in diplomatic missions, such as transporting the British Consul to Egypt in 1840. The ship underwent repairs and refits throughout its service life, including a major overhaul in 1847. In 1855, Imogene was decommissioned and eventually sold out of the service in 1867. The ship had a relatively uneventful career compared to other vessels of its time, but its service highlights the varied roles and missions undertaken by Royal Navy ships in the 19th century.
