Battle of Hogland (1713)

A small Swedish squadron led by Commander Carl Raab consisting of three ships of the line encountered on 10 July 1713 a much larger Russian squadron near Gogland who gave chase to the Swedes withdrawing towards west.

[1] Early on the 11 July, faster Russian ships had gained the Swedish squadron and reached firing distance.

Intense fighting took place near Kalbådagrund and Yttre Hällkallan shallows.

Three Russian ships following also run aground, one of them so badly that it could not be pulled free and had to be torched.
