When the revolt broke out Revolutionary France sent an invasion force to Ireland in support of Wolfe Tone's rebels, but it was quickly defeated and captured. Before news had reached France reinforcements were sent out from Brest, but this time the Royal Navy was ready for them. The French were chased north and scattered to be picked off by the superior British fleet. The French frigate 'La Loire' had managed to escape from HMS Mermaid despite severe damage, but came up against HMS Kangaroo, which closed on the unprotected stern of Loire, raking the immobile French ship, as shown here. After her capture the Royal Navy recommissioned her as HMS Loire.
