Based on your stated admiration of Sidney Smith's 'expertise' in cutting out operations/special operations, how would you explain his failure in that type operation at Le Havre in April 1796 where he was overwhelmed and captured by the French navy while attempting to cut out the French lugger Vengeur. Smith's force was counterattacked by the French lugger Renard accompanied by three gunboats. Smith's command was either killed or captured, including Smith himself in the anchorage of Le Havre harbor.
