I just went a bit further with your link Chris and looked at the sources.
García-Torralba Pérez, Enrique, Navíos de la Real Armada 1700-1860 (2014) ISBN 978-84-939303-4-9 seems to be unavailable on Amazon, although the link lists it as being there.

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.
