The Santa Ana was built at El Ferrol,
Spain in 1784.She was a prototype
of a series of 8 ships and carried
112 guns. In Trafalgar, 1805, she
fought against the Royal Sovereign.
After more than three hours with
over 100 men killed, her rigging
destroyed and surrounded by many
British ships, she surrendered.
But, during the heavy storm that
followed the battle, her crew seized
her and the Santa Ana arrived to Cadiz.
