Although the United States dominated Lake Erie for the rest of the war, the British made a comeback in the upper lakes in 1814. Four U.S. schooners Little Belt, Chippewa (apprehended at Put-in-Bay), Ariel, and Trippe were sent by Elliot to Buffalo, but were trapped there during the winter. When a British land attack on Buffalo occurred in December 1813, all four ships caught fire. In 1814, Captain Arthur Sinclair, who replaced Perry, took command of the Lake Erie fleet and drove it to Lake Huron to recover Michilimackinac. The joint military and naval force had to tow Niagara and Lawrence through the shallow waters of the Saint Clair River to get them to Lake Huron. The invasion was rejected by a British force on the island of Mackinac, and the schooners Scorpion and Tigress were lost in Georgian Bay. After losing almost all the other ships in a storm, the force returned to Detroit. The schooners were incorporated into the Royal Navy as Confiance and Surprise. When Sinclair returned to Lake Erie, he discovered that two schooners, Somers and Ohio, had also been apprehended off Fort Erie. They became Huron and Sauk.
