Although Foley claimed to have completely destroyed the French schooner, he had to abandon any attempt to get her off because the night was dark and the wind was rising.
On the failure of the expedition Gipsy carried the despatches to the admiral, and Fitton, in accordance with the senior officer's recommendation, received a promotion to lieutenant.
