• HMS Minorca was the French brig Alerte (1787), which the Royal Navy captured in 1799 and took into service, renaming her Minorca; the Navy sold her in 1802.
• HMS Minorca (1805) was a Cruizer-class brig-sloop. She served during the Napoleonic Wars in the Mediterranean and was sold in 1814 after an uneventful career.
