Oh Great - a ship MAY have been bribed in 1797. That really clinches the argument

Ya asked for one example, and one example is what ya got!

If you really want a shipload of examples...

could you not consider bribing a ship as a form of piracy? or even a hijacking? If you don't sink the ship when you capture it, you make it yours, and the cost to bribe can be viewed simply as the expenditure that went into the planning and execution of the exercise, since reducing your treasury is a good way to simulate not getting something for nothing
