L'Amazone was a French Navy brig.

Built in Toulon in 1707, L'Amazone was fast and maneuverable, often accompanied by smaller escort ships.

Despite the poor condition of the French Navy at the turn of the 18th century, some of the ships built during the expansionist rule of Louis XIV of France still protected the trade routes between France and its colonies in the West Indies. L'Amazone was an example of this.

At some point around 1716, L'Amazone and an escorting gunboat patrolled a bay in Scorpion Reef. The pirate Alonzo Batilla was able to sink both ships, and subsequently plundered their cargo.
