HMS Advice was a 10-gun cutter of the Royal Navy. She was purchased in 1779 and fitted out at Deptford for the sum of £801 between 7 April and 19 May 1780. She commissioned under Lieutenant John Swan, who commanded her in the English Channel, and then the North Sea. Lieutenant Thomas Dyson took command in May 1781, and remained Advice's commander until she was paid off in September that year. She returned to service, serving on the Irish coast until being paid off again in December 1786. A great repair was carried out at Portsmouth, after which she recommissioned in December 1789 under Lieutenant Henry Wray. Wray sailed her to Jamaica in early 1790, and after two years service in these waters she was put up for sale on 22 November 1792. She was subsequently withdrawn from sale, registered as a schooner on 3 January 1793, and was sold on 6 March 1793. She made a brief return to service under Lieutenant Edward Tyrell, but was wrecked off Honduras on 1 June 1793. References Colledge, J. J.; Warlow, Ben (2006) [1969].
