As the fight develops, the British face dwindling ammunition while the Americans retain more shells in several ships. Iowa is lost after structural damage and New Hampshire follows, leaving the British as the theoretical winners at the time limit. Several British ships finish unable to make their designed speed, and their remaining fire comes from secondary guns and torpedoes. The damaged squadron has survived the fight but is poorly prepared for the next operational problem, including rearming in Canada.
