In 1799 the Anglo-Russian invasion of Holland led to the capture of Nieuwediep and the Nieuwe Werk on 29 August after both had been evacuated. By then the English found 95 guns and many supplies in the Nieuwe Werk. They also captured many ships: the ships of the line: "Verwachting" (66), "Broederschap" (55) and "Hector" (44); the frigates: "Helder" (32), "Jollock" (24), "Minerva" (24), "Venus" (24), "Alarm" (24) and the two-decks East Indies ships: "Duifje" (12), "Expeditie" (16), "Constitutie" (12), "Schoone Antoinette" (12), "Unie" (12) and four single-deck ships, all of them without crew. Seeing the Orange flags in Nieuwediep probably had a big influence on the Vlieter incident of 30 August. A Dutch fleet of eight ships of the line and four frigates, now separated from its base, mutinied and surrendered without firing a shot.
