The fighting ended with the Stockholm giving up after the Phoenix arrived to support the Jonsco Frigot.

This came as a surprise to the Swedes, as two Dutch and one Danish ship had been allowed to freely sail on their way.

Acting upon the belief that the English privateer ship seemed to be an Irish pirate, the captain of the Stockholm, Sybraut Jellis, opened fire on the Englishmen and fought for several hours in an attempt to defend his ship.

[4][2][1] During the fighting, the Swedes suffered one man killed and several others wounded, including Sybraut Jellis himself.
