 On 28, a storm broke out, and caused further damage to several ships.The leakage on "Téméraire" had become so worrisome that she doubled back to Brest, but lost her way en route and finally arrived in Saint-Malo.After a few days of cruise, the "Neuf Thermidor" had lost her stem, forcing captain Dorré to cut away the bowsprit and the upper foremast, and drop his anchors and upper battery overboard.
