The gigantic Spanish flagship at Trafalgar. She was painted a strong, glowing red.
Built at Havana in 1769 as a 112-gun ship, re-armed in 1796 with about 136 guns to make her the world's only
ship with four complete gundecks, this celebrated Spanish flagship fought at the battles of St. Vincent and Trafalgar. Several observers remarked on her red and white striped sides.
