LeBoiteux Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 (edited) Descubierta 1789, Spanish 16 to 26-gun Corvette The Descubierta and Atrevida were twin corvettes of the Spanish Navy, custom-designed as identical special exploration and scientific research vessels. Both ships were built at the same time for the Malaspina Expedition, a five-year maritime scientific exploration. The two vessels sailed from Spain to the Pacific Ocean, conducting a thorough examination of the internal politics of the American Spanish Empire and the Philippines. The military version of the Descubierta carried 26 guns. Pictures / 3-Decks / Wiki Edited April 6, 2017 by LeBoiteux 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

_Alucard_ Posted April 6, 2017 Share Posted April 6, 2017 (edited) Here you have the list of all ships Spain had during the 18th century: https://www.todoababor.es/listado/ A lot of ships and multiple choices there. From 50 to 140 (Santísima) they can choose the amount of guns they want. My favourites: - Santa Ana (112) -Montañés (we have real plans of this ship) and San Juan Nepomuceno (74) -Glorioso (70) google this one and see why https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voyage_of_the_Glorioso Edited April 6, 2017 by _Alucard_ 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on the Purísima Concepción, Romero Landa (Spanish shipbuilder) built the Santa Ana (another 112 guns 1st rate) improving some of the Gautier system defects, and the Santa Ana was the first of 8 112 guns ships (brothers) called "los Meregildos". They were: 1- Santa Ana- Ferrol 1784 2- Mejicano - La Habana 1786 3- Conde de Regla - La Habana 1786 4- Salvador del Mundo - Ferrol 1787 5- Real Carlos - La Habana 1787 6- San Hermenegildo - La Habana 1789 7- Reina Luisa - Ferrol 1791 8- Príncipe de Asturias - La Habana 1794 All of the ships designed by Romero Landa were known as excellent sailors, with great manoeuvrability, a lot of room on their decks, great power of fire and among the best ships built in Europe. In fact, in the maiden voyage of Santa Ana her captain wrote: "she can turn against the wind only with the rudder or with sails, but she doesn't need both, she goes smoothly even with bad wind or bad sea" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Alucard_ Posted May 6, 2017 Share Posted May 6, 2017 Oh, I realized what you mean. Yes, the Purísima Concepción and San José were designed based on the Gautier system and the others were designed based on Romero Landa system. That's a mistake, yes.

Even if the comparison of the ships systems Romero Landa have significant differences. For example drawings of San Hermenegildo (La Habana); Salvador del Mundo (Ferrol); Reina Luisa (Ferrol). We use different wood in the construction. Different shipyards had different materials and craftsmen. Also when building a new ship, take into account the design mistakes of the previous one. thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
