5. The French ship of the line is finally able to fire on the English frigate, inflicting a dismasting and four crew losses. Having just repaired one of the waterways, the French frigate is fired upon by the English and suffers another waterway.
6. With her hull flooded, the French frigate sank body and soul. Limited in maneuvering by the English frigate, the French frigate is content to send a weak burst of musketry. The English frigate has regained its ability to maneuver.

9. Deadly gunfire between the English frigate and the French vessel, which suffers another fire.
10. Deprived of her ability to maneuver, the English frigate is lost at sea with the results of her observations. The French ship sinks in turn, ravaged by flames, while the English ship of the line is able to return to port despite the damage.

Conclusion: the English observation mission could not be completed.
Both sides' frigates and the French ship of the line are eliminated.
The accumulation of special damage proved fatal for the crews, who were unable to overcome it.
