 On the second occasion, Rowley was able to chase and capture Hamelin and his flagship "Vénus", bringing an end to his raiding career and to the activities of his squadron, who remained on Isle de France until they were all captured at the fall of the island in December 1810 by an invasion fleet under Vice-Admiral Albemarle Bertie.In France the action was greeted with celebration, and it became the only naval battle commemorated on the Arc de Triomphe.The British response was despondent, although all four captains were subsequently cleared and praised at their courts-martial inquiring into the loss of their ships.
