Wishing to offset their losses at Papudo, the Spanish fleet sought another confrontation with the allied navies (Peru and Ecuador added to Chile's side). Their desire for vengeance was fulfilled at Chiloé in the battle of Abtao on February 7, 1866. Artillery combat occurred only between "Covadonga" and the Spanish ships "Villa de Madrid" and "Blanca", as the other allied ships were unused due to a lack of coal and the rocky estuary. Prat then served on "Covadonga", the ship which resisted the Spanish bombardment. There were no losses on the allied side, while the Spanish suffered two deaths.
