    Some more info on the setup. North is to the left in the picture. English ships are HMS Cleopatra 32 and HMS Zealous 74 NE of the island HMS Agamemnon 64 and HMS Bellona 74 to the NW. Spanish ships are Ninfa 34, Argonauta 74, Bahama 74 and San Hermenegildo 112. The fort is in Spanish hands.
    At the start of the engagement the wind is moderate from the EAST.

    I guess I should make this an AAR.....

    Looking at your table size, it is the same as mine Steve. Any bigger and your ships just take twice as long to get into action and you get a bad back by having to lean across the table for hours on end. I ended cutting a foot off the width of mine.

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
