The six captured ships had very different futures in British hands. Sans Pareil survived until breakup in 1842, while Juste was a popular command before decommissioning in 1802. Achille and Northumberland were broken up as unserviceable on arrival, although their captors still received prize money. Impétueux burned in a dockyard fire during repairs in 1794. America initially entered service as HMS America, then became HMS Impétueux in July 1795 and served until 1813. The combined prize money was about £201,000 in 1794, a substantial reward even when a hull could not be retained.
