Cadboro first appeared in Lloyd's Register (LR) in 1824 with T. Rubie, master, C. Hicks, owner, and trade Leith coaster.In 1826 the Hudson's Bay Company purchased her for £800 for the fur trade from the Pacific Northwest Coast. On 25 September she sailed for the Columbia River in company with another Hudson's Bay Company vessel, William and Ann. Cadboro arrived on the coast in May 1827. From there she sailed north, and then south to Monterrey.
In 1828 the Cadboro was used in an asymmetric use of force by HBC Chief Factor John McLoughlin against the S'Klallam tribe after an earlier raid. In the early morning, under the command of Alexander McCleod, the Cadboro fired its cannons into a village near Port Townsend, killing twenty-seven people and leveling the village. In 1842 James Douglas (later Sir James Douglas, Governor of the Colonies of Vancouver Island and British Columbia) and six other company staff traveled from Fort Vancouver overland to Fort Nisqually on Puget Sound. Cadboro sailed north to reconnoitre the location of what would become Fort Camosun, shortly afterwards renamed Fort Victoria.Cadboro was the first vessel to anchor in Cadboro Bay, British Columbia and was the namesake of that bay and the community named for it, and adjoining Cadboro Point.In 1846, Cadboro was chartered to transport the survivors of the shipwreck of schooner USS Shark to California. She left in January and returned on 17 February 1847.
