Story :

The ship known by various names such as "San Felipe", "El Real" or "Real Felipe", is named after Felipe V of Spain, the first king of the Bourbon dynasty in Spain. This ship, built in 1716 in the San Feliú de Gixols, is a first class three-deck warship. Its design includes a sturdy construction with double internal and external plank, providing great resistance to the hull. With 108 cannons and impressive dimensions of 67 meters long, 16.5 meters wide and 12 meters draft, the San Felipe, decorated with majestic sculptures, was a formidable opponent capable of facing any enemy of the time. His service began in the Sardinia campaign in October 1717 under the command of squad leader D. Esteban Mari Centurione. Subsequently, he participated in to the Sicilian campaign in 1718 under the direction of captain D. Pedro Despoix and team leader D. Antonio Gaztañeta e Iturribalzaga. After fulfilling its mission, the San Felipe was taken to Syracuse and then sent to Mahón, which was under British control. However, an inaccuracy caused a fire and explosion, completely destroying the San Felipe.
