The armoured cruiser "Warrior" had been crippled by numerous hits by German battleships around 18:30 and fell in with "Engadine" 10 minutes later. The former's rudder had been jammed full over and she continued to turn in tight circles until her steam was exhausted. At 19:45 "Engadine" attempted to take her in tow, but the jammed rudder prevented that until it was trained amidships. By 21:30 she was making while her turbines were making revolutions for . Early the following morning "Warrior"s progressive flooding had worsened and she was sinking. Captain Vincent Molteno ordered his ship abandoned after "Engadine" came alongside to take them off at 08:00. One of "Warrior"s guns punctured "Engadine"s hull below the waterline as the former ship rolled in the moderate seas, but this was quickly patched. About 675 officers and enlisted men successfully made it to the much smaller "Engadine" which had to quickly distribute them to prevent her from capsizing. Among these were about 30 seriously wounded men who were transferred across in their stretchers; one man fell off his stretcher between the ships, but was rescued by Rutland against orders. For his bravery he was awarded the First Class Albert Medal for Lifesaving in gold and briefly became the only living recipient. The transfer was completed before 09:00 and "Warrior" sank shortly afterwards.
