The Continental Navy patrol was Admiral Amanda, Admiral Rain, and Privateer Kaz. The Pirates Fleet was Captain Tracy with Gunner Mercy, Captain Zan, and Captain Persephone. In the first clash, Admiral Amanda was the last navy ship afloat. She clashed with Captain Tracy & Mercy leaving them incapacitated but Amanda badly damaged. Amanda sailed to the east of Pirates Harbor where Persephone caught up with her. Amanda's guns fired as fast as she could and when the smoke cleared Persephone was sunk and Amanda was incapped. Captain Zan then came directly at Amanda's broadside. Once again her gunners fired fast and furious with Zan doing the same with his bow guns. When Captain Zan sank, the Admiral was only one hit away from sinking. Both the Continentals and the Pirates had one ship afloat but they were too damaged to continue the fight. After both fleets regrouped, Captain Tracy & Mercy were the last Pirate ship with Vice Admiral Rain and Admiral Amanda with Gunner Randy still afloat. Rain was out of the battle. Amanda & Randy were in a long range gunnery duel with Tracy & Mercy. It was a long running battle that started in Port Royal and continued north through Martinique, Tortuga, and Pirates Harbor. Gunner Mercy was lost in a sudden gale force wind. Amanda pressed the advantage and chased Tracy across half the waters of Pirates Destiny before finally catching up to her in Tortuga where Randy sank her. Sketches by FluerRound OneRound Two
