8.15am. The wind remains NNE. A squadron of five French SOLS has been spotted to the north making 9 knots. The French fleet carried out a preplanned 180 degree turn to port in succession. At the same time, the British fleet turned west at 6 knots. The French are in considerable disorder after making the turn and are attempting to reorder their line, heading ESE at 4 knots.
The fleets are about to engage.
