SANTA ANA SHIP OF THE LINE HISTORY: BATTLE OF TRAFALGAR
Discover the Santa Ana model ship kit with the wooden model of this famous line ship of the Spanish Navy from the 18th century. Armed with 112 cannons, it was the prototype of a series of 8 identical ships that would constitute the nerve of the Navy.
Built at Ferrol Shipyards and launched in 1784, it was the first of a series of three-deck ships called the Meregildos. Captained by José Gardoqui, he intervened in the Battle of Trafalgar inflicting heavy punishment on the English ship Royal Sovereign. Attacked by several English ships, he was captured and later saved by Rayo, Montañés and San Justo, who towed it to Cádiz in the middle of the night. It would end up sinking in Havana, where it had been sent to prevent Napoleon’s troops from capturing it.
