Commerce de Marseille was a Téméraire class of the French Navy. She was funded by a don des vaisseaux donation from Marseille.
She was renamed Lys in July 1786 and Tricolore in October 1792. She was one of the ships in Toulon when the city was surrendered to the protection of a British force under Admiral Lord Hood in August 1793. Tricolore was subsequently burnt by the British in their withdrawal from the port in December that year.
