Description
Crews brought their vessel alongside their target, boarding the deck of the foe en masse with cutlass armed sailors. Uniformed marines sniped with flintlock rifles from the fighting tops and along the rails. Decks were ??cleared?? with swivel cannons belching grapeshot, which kept the heads of the defenders down whilst the boarders clambered over the sides – good use of the swivel guns was necessary to hamper the defenders from using their boarding pikes to stave off the boarders effectively.
