Well depends on how you see it, The Danish, lost up to 4000 men killed or wounded, both admirals and two admiral ships. Which probably put the Danish fleet in a bad situation. The Swedish navy lost around 884 men killed or wounded, along with 3 ships(One taken). And yes he had more ships, but then numbers doesn't mean everything. At bornholm both fleets went in for boarding and close up action, which is probably why there where such a high number of casualties amongst the crews. He whas the greatest admiral we had at the time, thats why i mentioned him here. If your gona question that, i think you should come up with another name for the list. the thing is, Sweden didn't have many good admirals, the same as Denmark didn't have many good generals during the time period.

Well he might not have been in class with Admiral Nelson, but at the time he whas the best we had. At Bornholm the Danish lost both their Admiral ships and both admirals, one killed and one captured. The third battle of Öland 1566, if im right whas a minor battle with no result due to the storm, they where forced to quit the fighting becuse of windchanges. He had control of the Baltic sea for some time, could tax the trade ships and so on, without the interference of the Danish navy. I think without him the Danish would have won the 7 years war, now it became a draw with the Kalmar union ended for good. /Baner

For Sweden, the only one that comes to my mind is Baron Klas Kristersson Horn, hes considered a naval hero in Sweden and probably in Finland. Won some major victory's over the Danish navy in 1565 and 1566(died 1566 by plauge). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klas_Horn /Baner
