The British launched an assault on the Dutch town of Güiria today, May 3, 2022. It was a large battle with lineships on both sides. The British chose to stick more captains in the battle with third rated ships of the line, whereas the Dutch defenders went with a traditional second rate fleet composition.
Several Dutch captains were caught in bad circumstances and died when they should have been saved. A simple matter of fact that when you are outnumbered, it is hard to find cover.
Even though the British scored several kills, they could never get close enough to push the Dutch defenders out of the capture circles. The Dutch fleet stayed together and were able to repel the British long enough that the time ran out. A great fight!
