I te 15 o Hui-tanguru 1761, i hainatia ia mo te Navy Russian i Saint Petersburg. I muri i te whakangungu, i mahi ia i runga i te galley i te Baltic Fleet. I te 1768 i whakawhitihia ia ki te Don Flotilla (Azov Sea Navy) i Taganrog, a ka mahi i roto i te Pakanga Russo-Turkish (1768<unk>74). I whakahau ia i te yacht a Catherine II, a, i muri mai ka tiakina e ia nga kaipuke kaihokohoko a Ruhia i te Mediterranean mai i nga whakaeke moana a Ingarangi. Pātai: I hea ia i muri i te whakangungu?
