This is the same turn as the last picture from a different angle. Robin has luffed up and Swan is about to start making way.
Robin completes her tack while the battle moves upstream and away from her.
Swan, making way at last, steers straight into a bow rake.
Finch's gun crews cheer at their good fortune, fire, and completely fail to inflictany meaningful damage.
Finch turns away to reload while Swan's captain ponders the practicality of circumnavigating Garret Island now that his opponents are separated. Attempting to close the gap, Robin shakes out her main course.
