where the american guns can only shoot 500 yards. so if the british royal navy is kept away, if they can sail outside the 500 yards, they can reduce the american fleet to splinters in a matter of one pass. this is what he's faced with. he's 30 years old and the commandor. as it comes into the bay, the wind shifts. and it's a westerly wind. and in the bay, the winds are fitful, and that confiance and the other ships need a strong wind to carry them out beyond the american guns. and as she comes into the bay, this is confiance outer anchor and shot off the front by american cannons and sinks into the bay. we found it 1996 here in the bay in 40 feet of silt. there she is. 10 feet long, 10 feet wide. and if you look real close, you can still see the gold paint on the side. when the anchor is shot off, the captain of the ship tries to stay away from the american lines. he can't. the ships on the line away. it can't be done. the wind will not allow it. and he's drawn directly into the american fire. and finally, he has to anchor at 300 yards. line of fire. now for the

the american navy then would try to control the lake and keep the british north. it meant that there was a clash coming. you know they're really sitting ducks finally the navy is coming. they couldn't come south, because the south wind kept them from sailing south. there's no other power. that's what the army and the navier waiting for. mcdonough doesn't have that problem. he's already in the bay, he's moor and waiting. finally the night of the 10th they come south towards plattsburg. four ships and a dozens gun boats in a road that has 70 men and a gun boat and one cannon. they're supposed to be in close to the american fleet underneath the guns and put holes in the sides of the american fleet and sink them. when the british come into the bay and this whole thing starts, the british guns can fire a mile and a half, where the american guns are carrying aids for the most part. they can only shoot 500 yards. if the british royal navy is kept away, if they can sail outside the 5 hundreds yards, they can reduty the flart fleet has "confiance" comes into the bay, the w
