Actions & Battles

1748-oct-12 1st Battle of La Habana  

 

Notes

Was the 1st and last ship built at Coatzacoalcos due to his high cost in comparation with the ones built at La Habana.

Some sources listed as built at La Habana, but it is a mistake with 2nd Reina or it is that was fitted at La Habana due to lack of supplies at Coatzacoalcos.

1Adm. Reggio's fleet: Vencedor, Leon, Invencible, Nueva Espanna, Tigre and frigate La Nis, with 9 merchantmen San Jorge, San Espiridion, Gabarra de Sevilla, Galgo, Concepcion, Soledad, San Ignacio, Santa Barbara & one gabarra more.

2Adm. Reggio's fleet: Vencedor, Leon, Invencible, Nueva Espanna, Tigre and frigate La Nis, with merchantmen San Jorge, San Espiridion, Gabarra de Sevilla and Galgo.
