Description
In the September 28, 1813 engagement, the Wolfe ran downwind into Burlington Bay and sought refuge close to shore. The pattern of damage on the flagship meant that she could only follow the wind's direction after she had benefit. Contrary to some reports, recent research has indicated the the ships did not cross the sandbar into inner Burlington Bay.
