Finally loaded with the necessary men and supplies aboard, the Royal Fleet sets sail towards Driftmark. As the fleet approaches the island, sails are spotted on the horizon. Though badly outnumbered, it appears Lord Barclay has no desire to surrender his fleet without a fight.

134/90 Evander Storm, Master Sword
79/70 Ser Jonathan Waters, Noteworthy Sword
Oars dip swiftly into the water, bringing the ships to ramming speed, while arrows fly from the topdecks, landing with splashes or cries of pain. Lord Barclay commands from the rear. He orders part of his fleet into a flanking manuever, but his tactic is foiled by the enemy's greater numbers.
The fleets crash together with the sound of splintering wood, and soon men leap from ship to ship, swords drawn. Lord Tyberion's westermen cut a particularly bloody swathe through their foes, with Ser Rhyin Myatt personally slaying one of Lord Barclay's captains. Both Dawnrose and Velaryon also fight admirably, and soon men are darting out of their paths rather than face them.
Royal Fleet: 7,600 Men, 96 Ships
Barclay's Fleet: 1,200 Men, 12 Ships

Lord Mallister retires to his cabin, knowing the battle has all but been won. With his last ships sinking or siezed, Lord Barclay appears on the deck of his flagship, sword in hand. It is Lord Frey who gets to him first and with an almost effortless stroke severs the man's sword hand. Barclay collapses to the deck in a puddle of his own blood, unconcious.
The Lannister troops take the last of Barclay's ships, expecting little resistance. Then another known rebel, Evander Storm, dressed in the garb of a red priest, rushes forward. He cuts down three of Tyberion's men like a scythe through wheat, then deals heavy wounds to both Tyberion and his bannerman, Ser Hugh. Only through the combined efforts of Dudley Marbrand, Rhyin Myatt, and half a dozen men-at-arms is Evander Storm beaten back, disarmed, and captured.
Results:
Royal Fleet: 7,400 Men, 96 Ships Remaining.
Barclay's Fleet: 100 Men (Captives), 8 Ships (Prizes) Remaining.
Lord Barclay is the captive of Lord Frey.
Evander Storm is the captive of Lord Marbrand.
A garrison of unknown size still holds Driftmark.

Ser Lyn Payne will fight in the battle for the island itself. He also tried to plant some spies inside the castle that will open the gates, if they managed to come in.
