HMS Pickle was a topsail schooner of the Royal Navy. She was originally a civilian vessel named Sting, of six guns, that Lord Hugh Seymour purchased to use as a tender on the Jamaica station. Pickle was at the Battle of Trafalgar, and though she was too small to take part in the fighting, Pickle was the first ship to bring the news of Nelson's victory to Great Britain. She also participated in a notable single-ship action when she captured the French privateer Favorite in 1807. Pickle was wrecked in 1808, but without loss of life.

  • Le HMS Pickle, était une goélette à hunier de 10 canons que la Royal Navy a acheté en 1801. Le navire est célèbre d'abord pour avoir été le premier navire à annoncer la bataille de Trafalgar au Royaume-Uni, puis pour la prise du navire corsaire français Favorite en 1807. Il s'est échoué et a coulé en 1808 près de Cadix. (fr)
  • HMS Pickle was een schoener in dienst van de Royal Navy ten tijde van de Slag bij Trafalgar (1805). Het schip werd in 1800 gebouwd in Bermuda onder de naam Sting. Het werd gehuurd, maar daarna in strijd met orders uit Engeland in 1800 gekocht door Lord , de opperbevelhebber van de Engelse kolonie Jamaica, om als tender te worden gebruikt in de haven aldaar. Geconfronteerd met een voldongen feit, lijfde de Admiralty het schip in 1801 in, en veranderde de naam in Pickle. Hoewel de schoener niet actief deelnaam aan de slag bij Trafalgar, speelde HMS Pickle een belangrijke rol doordat het als eerste schip Engeland bereikte met het nieuws over de door Engeland gewonnen zeeslag.
