Capture of the galleon San Joaquin

1711 battle of the War of the Spanish Succession

The capture of the galleon San Joaquin was a naval engagement that took place off the coast near Cartagena. It involved five British ships of the line against the Spanish galleon San Joaquin and a smaller ship. After an action lasting barely an hour San Joaquin surrendered. The galleon had fought in the previous encounter during Wager's Action nearly three years earlier but had just barely escaped capture.
