 With the assistance of HMS "Otter", which had followed "Boadicea" from Saint Denis, Rowley was able to return his prize and the battered "Ceylon" to Île Bourbon without significant difficulty.British casualties had been relatively minor for such a difficult engagement, "Ceylon" suffering 10 men killed and 31 wounded and "Boadicea" just 2 wounded.French losses were also comparatively light, with only 9 dead and 15 wounded on "Vénus" and none at all on "Victor".
