The English lost only one ship, the captured "Great Charity" mentioned above. Eight Dutch ships were sunk by the English; six of these were burnt in two separate incidents when they got entangled while fleeing, and each group was set ablaze by a fire ship: this happened to the "Tergoes" entangling with the company ship the "Maarseveen" and the merchantman the "Swanenburg"; and also to the "Koevorden", the "Stad Utrecht" and the "Prinse Maurits". The earlier mentioned company ship the "Oranje" was set on fire after being reduced to a wreck when fighting off several English ships. The first to attack was one of the Duke of York's squadron, the "Mary" under captain Jeremiah Smith, which lost 99 men of its crew in this action, followed later by the , the and the . According to some accounts, the "Oranje" lost half of its crew of 400 before succumbing, a severely wounded Senten (rumoured to be an expatriate Scotsman) was picked up by an English vessel and shortly after he also died. During the Dutch flight, the English captured nine more ships: "Hilversum", "Delft", "Zeelandia", "Wapen van Edam" and "Jonge Prins"; the VOC-ship "Nagelboom" and the merchants "Carolus Quintus", "Mars" and "Geldersche Ruyter". "Tromp" was captured but escaped. Eight older ships had to be written off later, as the costs of repairing them would have exceeded their value. The English fleet had lost one flag officer, Rear-Admiral Robert Samsun during the battle, while Vice-Admiral Lawson was mortally wounded and died three weeks after the battle. Notable English admirals and captains present at the battle included William Penn in the , Christopher Myngs and George Ayscue.
