Due to unfavorable winds, the fleet will not reach the Flemish coast until May 30th . In front of the port of Damme , the English discovered the French fleet of around 1,700 ships that was anchored there. Ships sent ahead for reconnaissance find out that the ships are manned only by the sailors, while the knights and soldiers are besieging nearby Ghent or plundering the surrounding area. Longespée then immediately orders the attack on the anchored fleet.
