British briefing:
The Royal Navy has problems, because a large number of the service is Irish, but the Crown's policies in Ireland have been less than successful. This has lead to a high level of unrest among irish crewmen. Now an agitator has been offering his services to any nation that will offer anmesty to irish sailors. This man needs to be silenced - and since the magistrate can't send any of his ships (too many irish on board), you will need to capture him from the French before a deal can be made.
Non-british briefing:
The Royal Navy has a problem, Captain, and that gives us an opportunity. England's policies in Ireland have been disastrous yet it's navy is one-third Irish. Recently the British captured an Irish agitator. This man was offering his loyalty to any nation that will give amnesty to Irish sailors. If we can set him loose, he could do more damage to the Royal Navy than a squadron of 104-gun ships. I need you to rescue the Irish agitator from the British before they take him out of reach.
Mission Notes
You will not be the only one who wants that Irishman: there will be two groups of enemy ships in the area, both with three ships each - one British flotilla containing the ship you have to board and two escorts, and a group of pirates. You will have two NPC ships to support you. All ships except possibly your own are level 7-14. Your allies will use sail-damaging shot.
Finishing the optional objective doesn't give you any extra xp reward, so unless you want to go after the xp or loot for the ship kills, you might as well go for your target immediately (possibly first neutralizing her escorts).
