FTP, name this ship captured during the Barbary War, which was then burned in Tripoli harbor by Stephen Decatur.
A Sicilian navigator, Salvatore Catalano, was employed by Edward Preble in a mission targeting it.  That mission used the ketch Intrepid and enlisted the skill of the commanding officer from the schooner Enterprise. Its construction was funded by its namesake during the Quasi-War and it made eleven captures in the West Indies during that conflict. Later its companion, the Vixen, was sent away on a scouting mission, leaving it to pursue an enemy corsair, which led to it running aground and the imprisonment of its captain, William Bainbridge.
