In August 1804 he started on a "voyage of commercial experiment" to [[Rio de la Plata]] funded by Portugal's Prince Regent.

He sailed from Cadiz in March 1805 for [[Montevideo]], and on reaching that town was imprisoned as an English spy. He procured his liberty soon after, but was interned, and did not obtain his release till the capture of Montevideo by [[William Beresford, 1st Viscount Beresford|William Beresford]] in 1806. He accompanied the expedition under [[John Whitelocke]] to [[Buenos Aires]], and on his return to Montevideo purchased a schooner and sailed to [[Brazil]], putting in at various ports on the way, including the island of [[Santa Catarina (island)|Santa Catarina]].
