  Globe was on her way from London and Madeira to Jamaica when, on 28 May 1817, two 18-gun privateers from Buenos Aires, via Cadiz, detained her for several hours before releasing her. They wished to purchase provisions but Captain Blyth refused to sell them any. In 1818 Globe underwent a large repair.
