An 18th Century sea battle off the North of Scotland



There is an interesting account of a not very well known sea battle in the 1745-6 Jacobite Rising, at http://www.caithness.org/history/articles/eighteenthcenturyseabattle/eighteenthcenturyseabattle.htm
A Sinclair is mentioned.  The Royal Scots are also mentioned, but this is the French Regiment and not the one that was known as St Clair's at the time.

Yours aye
