Subsequently, all the pontoons which could have been used again during the coming night were destroyed by firing two rounds from a torpedo boat's 3-pdr gun into each pontoon, and while two pontoons that had been missed were holed by gun cotton charges.
Efterfølgende blev alle pontoner, som kunne have været blevet brugt i løbet af den kommende nat, ødelagt ved at skyde to granater fra en torpedobåds 3-punds kanon ind i hver ponton, og to som ikke blev ramt, blev ødelagt med skydebomuld.
