The Union Monitor and the Confederate Merrimack, renamed the Virginia, traded blows in Hampton Roads for several hours but neither was able to disable the other. Eventually both ships retreated to their bases, the Virginia more the worse for wear, and never met again.

The battle remained undecided, but Virginia would not have dared to set out again to fight against the Monitor. The strategic outcome was that Hampton Roads remained blockaded.
