 To the southeast, Tromp's ship "Liefde" was in collision with "Groot Hollandia", and both fell out of line.Vice-Admiral Sir William Berkeley saw this as an opportunity to redeem his reputation, damaged by accusations of cowardice at Lowestoft, and attacked with his own ship, , with little support from other English ships Immediately, "Callantsoog" and "Reiger" came to the rescue of their commander, destroying the rigging of the English ship with chain shot; the "Reiger" then managed to board the "Swiftsure" after first being repulsed.Berkeley was fatally wounded in the throat by a musket ball, after which the "Swiftsure" was captured.
