The action of 9 February 1799 was a minor naval engagement of the French Revolutionary Wars between a British Royal Navy frigate and a French privateer frigate fought 100 nautical miles (190 km) west of the southeastern coast of what is now Natal in South Africa. The 32-gun French frigate Prudente had since the start of the war been part of a squadron operating from Île de France (now Mauritius). This squadron had dispersed during 1798, with the ships sent on independent commerce raiding operations across the British trade routes in the Indian Ocean. Prudente had subsequently been seized in the autumn of that year by Anne Joseph Hippolyte de Maurès, Comte de Malartic, the Governor of Île de France, and sold to a private raiding company.

  • L’Azione del 9 febbraio 1799 fu un combattimento navale minore nell'ambito delle Guerre rivoluzionarie francesi tra una fregata britannica della Royal Navy ed una nave piratesca francese, svoltosi a circa 120 km in direzione ovest-sudovest della regione del Natal, in Sudafrica. La fregata francese Prudente (32 cannoni) sin dall'inizio della guerra operò con uno squadrone proveniente dall'Île de France (oggi Mauritius). Questo squadrone venne disperso nel corso del 1798, con le navi impegnate in operazioni indipendenti per minacciare le rotte commerciali inglesi nell'Oceano Indiano. La Prudente era stata catturata nell'autunno di quell'anno da , governatore dell'Île de France, e venduta ad una compagnia di corsari. (it)
