The Battle of Cap de la Roque was a naval battle that took place on 22 May 1703 between a Dutch convoy protected by captain Roemer Vlack and a French squadron under Alain Emmanuel de Coëtlogon, during the War of the Spanish Succession. During this war the French and Spanish fleet could not face the English and Dutch in an open sea battle and therefore had switched to privateering. The allies were thus forced to protect their merchant convoys. Thanks to the sacrifice of Vlacq, the convoy got away intact, meaning this Dutch defeat had little impact on the cause of the Grand Alliance.

  • La bataille du Cap de la Roque est une bataille navale livrée le 22 mai 1703 au large du Cabo da Roca pendant la guerre de Succession d'Espagne, entre une escadre française commandée par le marquis de Coëtlogon et un convoi marchand hollandais, escorté par le capitaine (en). Cette bataille est parfois mentionnée dans la littérature en langue anglaise sous le nom de « Battle of the Bay of Biscay » (en français : bataille du golfe de Gascogne), mais cette appellation est impropre, le Cabo da Roca étant situé au sud du Portugal.

  • La battaglia di Capo da Roca (nota anche erroneamente col nome di battaglia della Baia di Biscaglia) si svolse nell'ambito della guerra di successione spagnola il 22 maggio 1703 tra un convoglio olandese protetto dal capitano di vascello Roemer Vlack ed una squadriglia francese al comando di . Il giorno successivo presso Cabo da Roca (in francese: Cap de la Roque) il gruppo incontrò la squadriglia di Coëtlogon composto da cinque grandi navi di linea: i vascelli Vainqueur (88 cannoni), Monarque (86 - 94), Éole (64), Orgueilleux (80) e Couronne (82).

  • Сражение у мыса Рока — морское сражение между французской эскадрой под командованием и голландским конвоем во главе с Румером Влакком, произошедшее во время Войны за испанское наследство возле мыса Рока. В англоязычной литературе оно иногда называется «битвой в Бискайском заливе», что географически некорректно, поскольку мыс Рока находится в южной части Португалии. Благодаря самопожертвованию Влакка, торговый флот ушёл без потерь, таким образом, это поражение голландцев мало повлияло на положение дел союзников. (ru)

  • The Battle of Cap de la Roque was a naval battle that took place on 22 May 1703 between a Dutch convoy protected by captain Roemer Vlack and a French squadron under Alain Emmanuel de Coëtlogon, during the War of the Spanish Succession. During this war the French and Spanish fleet could not face the English and Dutch in an open sea battle and therefore had switched to privateering. The allies were thus forced to protect their merchant convoys. On May 21, 1703 a large merchant fleet consisting of about 110 English and Dutch ships transporting mainly salt, but also wine and sugar, left Lisbon for England. There were five escorting Dutch ships: the ships of the line Muiderberg (50), Gaesterland (46) and Schermer (44) and the frigates Rotterdam (34) and Rozendaal (36), under the command of Captain Roemer Vlacq on board the Muiderberg. The next day near Cabo da Roca (fr: Cap de la Roque) they encountered the squadron of Coëtlogon composed of five larger warships : (84), (90), Éole (64), Orgueilleux (90) and (76). Vlacq, after signalling the merchantmen to save themselves, lined up his ships to protect the fleet and engaged the French. The Dutch fought valiantly but the French were too strong and ship after ship had to capitulate. Vlack and the Muiderberg fought on until half of the crew was dead or wounded. Vlack lost an arm and part of his shoulder, but he only surrendered when the main mast came down and the ship was on the point of sinking. The survivors were evacuated and what was left of the Muiderberg was burnt and sank. Thanks to the sacrifice of Vlacq, the convoy got away intact, meaning this Dutch defeat had little impact on the cause of the Grand Alliance. Vlacq, his men and the four surviving Dutch warships were taken as prizes to Toulon, were Vlacq died of his wounds on July 17, 1703. The Dutch ships were added into the French Navy. (en)
