St Jago (no date)

Plan showing the body plan, sheer lines (no waterlines), and longitudinal half-breadth for Saint Jago [St Jago], possibly an 83ft 12-gun Spanish three-masted warship or armed merchant ship. The ship has an unusual curved beakhead bulkhead.

The identity of this vessel is uncertain. 'Saint Jago' does not feature in the Progress Book. If Spanish, then is likely to relate to one of the following Anglo-Spanish Wars: War of Jenkin's Ear (1739-1744), the Seven Years' War (1762), War of American Independence (1779-1783), or the Anglo-Spanish Wars (1796-1802, 1804-1808).
