due to her small size and high speed, "bonne citoyenne" suffered minimal casualties of one man killed and five wounded, although the ship itself was badly damaged. french losses were far more severe, with 35 killed, 37 seriously wounded including her captain, and 20 lightly wounded. "furieuse", built as a 40-gun frigate, had proven unable to match the speed an agility of the smaller ship and as a result her reduced armament had proven inadequate when faced with mounsey's determined opposition. it was not until 01:30 on 7 july that temporary repairs were complete and the two ships began the long, slow journey to halifax, nova scotia. the following day however, two of the "furieuse"<nowiki>'</nowiki>s masts collapsed and mounsey was forced to take her in tow, both ships in constant danger of foundering. after 25 days in tow, "furieuse" arrived in halifax. mounsey and his officers were widely praised for their success and mounsey was given command of the repaired and newly purchased hms "furieuse" several months later as a reward. his first lieutenant was also promoted and the whole crew benefitted from the award of prize money. as with the april engagement, the capture of "furieuse" was among the actions recognised by a clasp attached to the naval general service medal.
