- A full-size replica of a 17th-century Spanish Galleon, similar to those of the Spanish Armada that was famously defeated by Sir Francis Drake in 1588.
El Galeon was launched in 2009 at Huelva in Spain.
The only one in the world that sails in present days.
These ships were the type of vessel used by the Spanish Crown for maritime expeditions during the 16th through the 18th centuries.
all my life, i've seen hundreds if not more , war ships going up and down the Hudson River and , i've never seen anything as beautiful as this galleon . greetings from NYC....
What an incredible replica! She's magnificently beautiful yet haunting at the same time.
Glorious little Nao that carried the bravest men on earth, with that absolutely beautiful first on all oceans on this planet flag. PLUS ULTRA.
Is a galeon, Nao is a different type of ship
Gracias a estos barcos los españoles forjamos el primer imperio global y logramos navegar y mandar en todos los mares y oceanos conocidos,Viva España y viva Andalucía 🇪🇦💚🤍💚
Да, но сейчас вы, увы, ее давно просрали
are you on drugs?? portuguese mate, not spaniards.
Por su puesto que si, pero también fueron los que llegaron a saquear, traer enfermedades y acabar con la raza aborigen de nuestras tierras.
cuantos abusos cometidos por la angurria de los españoles.
Viva españa joder! ❤

Its amazing to me that they could engineer this magnificent ship 500 years ago. All designed by hand drawings and built to such a high standard using hand tools.
And very long term planning ,they selected trees with potencial to grow knowing they needed a stock of varios bends etc. (Verry possibly using hedging technique's to establish growth patterns' early in the tree's development)
Even making rope for such a ship takes ages ,it's not gust the length but the number of strands in thick rope.
I have helped steaming and fitting hull planks. I cant Imajin the expertise needed to steam huge planks using wood ovens then fitting them in the seconds before they start setting.
My dear evidently you are not a naval architect.i can assure you the best designs were made even before with battleships designed and build by Athenians many centuries B.C
they were better engineers and craftsmen those days..more of them too; these days were all dumbed down with digital/electronic technology...almost ZERO hands on craftsmen's / people, being produced. we are doomed ...you can thank the likes of bill gates etc etc etc etc for that.
@@dimitrisrallis9887 Wow. Cringe and also incorrect. Bravo sir.
Sustainable shipbuilding. Eco friendly.
She’s magnificent!!❤
Thank you for taking us on a virtual tour! What a beautiful ship The Andalucia is!
What a masterwork of a ship! 🙌🏽
I saw this on 17th July (2024) in Scarborough. It is a very beautiful and impressive ship. Fully seaworthy. It was exactly as I imagined them to be. It is very big, it doesn't really look as big on this film as it did when I saw it. I noticed there was no figurehead and I am wondering if Spanish galleons didn't have them. I can imagine seafaring ancestors climbing up those masts to sort out the rigging.
@@weejackrussell I dont know anything about boats/ships and this was my 1st time seeing one like it. I enjoyed it, dont see something like this every day. Its been doing its rounds again in UK and will be back in Ramsgate soon. Might go and see again. Try getting a better video. Will see.
Surreal, que galeão magnífico. Muito obrigado por compartilhar. Saudações do Brasil.
That was very nice. Thank you for the wonderful video tour.
When you look at all the details, even just the masts and sails. The experience that let to such amazing works of art and function, is just astounding. It is so beautiful.
Un galion Espagnol magnifique 🎉
What a wonderful replica! This is like a time capsule. It looks like no expense was spared.
Built by John Hammond.

Fantastic ship! Love how it has been presented for the public to appreciate. I’ve been aboard much bigger ships (courtesy of Her Majesty’s renowned Grey Funnel Line) & am always amazed that people actually went to sea in such ships. Not only that, but fought battles in them! I’ve been on an aircraft carrier in a storm (cyclone) where waves were coming up onto the flight deck - they would have buried a little cockle-shell like this. They were certainly brave & tough men back then.
It was my 1st time on a ship like this. I know nothing about them, Im just a "tourist" and try see new things when can. Ive never been out to sea, bet it can get scary with the huge waves. Definitely brave men.
And built without power tools, back in the day. Amazing craftsmanship.
You wouldn't want anything less than a full crew operating this thing. Imagine how many people it took to manage it.
My first experience on a large sailing ship left me in awe of the power generated by the rapid hoisting and the wind quickly filling the sails. One moment we were not moving and in the next the sudden lurch of starting the ship moving almost caused me to lose my footing. I felt honored to be aboard.
I've never been on any ship out in the water. Would love to experience sailing though. What a rush
It had a big block chevy in it
And it’s natural power. That’s the cool thing about it.
@@goplaces1015 The ride under sail feels completely different from under power. Sails navigate waves engines try and ignore them and head strait ahead . There are times when the waves and wind are with you you feel like 'Shes' flying.
@@johnh539 sounds amazing
Crafters wood masterpiece of the era sea elegance and war ship ingenious.
When you actually see how small those ships were , then think about the long , long didtances they traveled rgularly . It gives you a strong respect for those that sailed them , and other ships like it .
Miles and miles of ropes. Maintaining and constantly replacing these ropes must have been an enormous job.
Hemp rope: stand up really well to salt water, which is why is was so common, and popular.
As the other poster stated, Ropes made from natural fibres such as hemp are actually quite sturdy, and will hold up for years, often decades before needing to be replaced. Ropes were more often needing replaced from battle damage than natural wear over time. Many of these old seabirds would have spare Ropes lashed and coiled everywhere. All them pegs and rails would be festooned with many miles of spare Ropes.
Thank you for sharing from Florida. Beautiful. Arrrrrrr
Belissima galé ...emoções....voltei ao sec. 16.... Parabéns....
That place is incredible!
she looks fantastic, i love it
Good idea to shoot from the water side view. It gives a much better visual of what the whole ship looks like. Good job!!!👍👍
Thank you. My video skills are basic, so good to know what works 😁
Was thinking the same. Looks very seaworthy.
I enjoyed your video, I just hoped you’d stayed on every single panel to be able to read the explanations.
Amazing design of the times! Wonder it was capable of cross ocean sailing in one piece! 😮
Considering the fact that they went to the America's and Asia, I think they had that capability...................
Not only cross the Ocean Sea but circumnavigate the world. Between the Spanish and Portuguese the world was divided in half. Something that England and France were jealous of and eventually broke that hegemony.
Still capable of crossing the ocean. According to one of the plaques, this ship visited Pensacola, Florida (U.S.) in 2016.

Amazing, great to see👌
Very interesting thank you for showing us this fantastic video well done 👍
Wow , its amezing and so originales ship , its super thanks for this video, i liked .
The Spaniards, especially on ships that visited the Caribbean a lot, tried to put a lead sheet lining on them against the shipworm or Teredo. Also, at least for the caravels, they used to give them to the hull a layer of a mixture of horse fat or cow fat or whale fat mixed with quicklime and sulfur, which gave a white color to the part of the hull that was in contact with the water
Fantastic replica.
The English armada was almost complete destroyed in 1589 by the coast of Northern Spain. In 1588 It was not "yet" a sea battle. The war ( ca 1600) was at final won by Spain.
The spanish armada was not defeated by Francis Drake, the fleet lose 28 ships by a sea storm
Тем хуже,
Испанские моряки не справились с морем, а британские справились.
Не важно по какой причине.
Факт налицо: Великая Армада перестала существовать.
@@ЛевЖарков-й9з se llamaba la Felicísima Armada, no la Gran Armada.La que de verdad, acabo destruida por las armas fue la Contraarmada o Invencible Inglesa.Mandé mi Armada a invadir Inglaterra, no a luchar contra los elementos.
Yeap. And was not only spanish. They took our largest ships and sunk them along with theirs. fools.
That was in 1588. Get over it. You can't change history.
@@AlanHigh-x4i and then lost a few more doing the around the UK and into ever worse weather!!!
Very cool, thanks.👍
I got this... _raise the anchor, then drop the sails and angle them into the wind, load up the cannons and assume your stations_ ...and off we go, harr harr harr 🏴☠😅
Superb galleon and so solid and well built.
Thanks for sharing
Those huge multiline blocks where to pull the boom up or down. I could not find the winch for that. Hope to see one day at YT video made by a sailor with knowledge on those craft. They where extremely complicated and need hundred of head count to make the ship sail
Buen vídeo, muy bien llevado, y precioso barco.
Gracias por compartirlo. 👍
At certain angles she almost looks ironclad. What a beauty.
Excellent video. Would have been neat to see this galleon next to the Golden Hind replica to compare sizes.
I wondered why I had not seen her in Huelva the last few months, she is doing a UK tour, including my old city of Cardiff. Nice little video documentary Julia, if you ever visit Huelva you could visit her sister replica ships Nao Victoria, Nao Santa Maria and El Galeon.
Yes, I saw she was in UK and i am hoping to go see. Would be interesting to see the other boats. This was my 1st time seeing or being on a boat like this. Found out about it by chance on the Internet when saw it was in Ramsgate. I must have been living under a rock lol
Linda embarcação👏
Un splendide bateaux de collection.
Good video ! Gracias
Mind boggling the amount of scarce materials and skilled labor in the thing.
Thank you very much for sharing, appreciate it a lot 👍

It's always nice seeing a sailing ship on the water, but if you're a model ship builder looking for reference material, steer clear of this one. A lot of this rigging was designed for modern integrity & safety, and while made to look "appropriate", much of it is far from period accurate.
Very nice. One must appreciate the technology of the Era.
Not as dumb and backwards as most people imagine medieval people to have been.
Es bellísimo ese barco no se como le llamen ahí pero esta bien echó
Beautiful ship
Splendid video, thank you. Wish I'd known she'd berthed in Ramsgate - I live only 15 miles away!
Surprised to see how spacious it was below decks and loved the way they hid the modern life raft canisters under canvas covers!
About 40 years ago we were in a small Spanish fishing village on the Mediterranean and saw a traditional wooden fishing boat being built. Mush smaller than this of course but all done with hand tools and not an electric drill in sight!
There's a good replica of Drake's Golden Hinde that can be visited in London at the Mary Overie Dock.
Being a bit picky I did find the video a bit jerky - perhaps invest in a small gimble mechanism for smoother shots and also, when you pan upwards - like your shots from deck to mast head - cut at the top of the shot. We'll have seen the detail going up so won't need to see it again coming down 😄
Having said that it's not always easy to get a smooth flow when you're filming "on the hoof" so well done for capturing so much detail.
Bon voyage . . . or should that be ¡Buen viaje!
Yes, I found out about it by chance on Facebook the day before myself. And hopefully will get a chance to visit the one in london too.
Must have been a cool experience seeing a boat being built by hand. Im no expert on boats at all. I just enjoy seeing new things.
Totally agree about my filming. I dont do a lot of it, so it is working progress. Also, when I try to avoid people, I tend to go over their heads, so that dont help and very good point about filming only up and not down. Noted ✅️ 😁
Dos grandes Naciones....dos grandes historias ❤❤
hi. great ship and looks very well made, also helps me when modeling these ships
Do the mast look like metal to you ? Look at the tops .
And they built 100s like this with just hand tools. Respect!
Her hattı her çizgisi muhteşem...böyle bir gemide yaşamayı isterdim.

Fascinating stuff.. More significant than the defeat of the Armada in 1588 was the Battle of the Azores in 1591 where the lone Revenge commanded by Sir Richard Grenville was defeated after a 15 hour battle against at least 15 enemy vessels such as depicted here. Revenge was a design departure for the English being sleeker and faster. It was the first battle where the use of cannon fire made a significant difference. The Armada was defeated by the weather and bad seamanship rather than cannon fire.
Thank you for an interesting fact 👍
The Spanish Armada lost because it was an overly ambitious and complicated operation for the time, lacking suitable friendly ports to embark the Army of Flanders, and the impossibility of synchronizing the action with Alexander Farnese, the commander of the Spanish forces in that area.
There is a disproportionate amount of mythology surrounding this event. From the supposed skill of the English gunners to Drake's game of Skittles. Most of that mythology, by the way, the product of patriotic British historians of the Victorian era whose lack of historical rigor based on any original source, is still kept alive in certain circles. Although less and less.
Huge ships. That sailed across the oceans .
I can imagine how hi tech this would have looked to the common people of the day who visited the dock and saw them. They are the equivlent of our space craft.
Never mind the people who were accustomed to seeing it every other day, but the natives who had never seen a vessel much larger than their canoes and much less white men. No doubt initially they thought them to be Gods!
There is no space craft.

Beautiful Sailingship ...
Looks awesome
It was an interesting visit. Not something you get to see every day.
@@goplaces1015anybody that gets the chance to see this in person will pass up the chance of a lifetime. I realize a tour is nothing like what those men went through but it gives a small glimpse of what could have happened to them.
bellissima..
The video description is a bit misleading, ships like these were out of commission by the late 17th century, the design and structure completely changed, ships were build longer and bulkier which allowed for more cannon, these changes brought the end of the forecastle as seen with 'Andalucia'. By the end of the 17th century the Galleons started to look more like that of 'HMS Victory' that you could still find moored in England today.
@@historystuff.2835 i only copied what they had on their site. This is how they describe their ship.
I'm from Ramsgate and used to work there too, you can even see my old office too ^^
Random fact.
Royal Ramsgate Harorbour is the only Royal harbour in the country.
This was my 1st time in Ramsgate and I went specifically for the boat. Was a bit of a rushed day and didnt get to explore as much. Will go back for a proper wonder round
@goplaces1015 next time you're down, check out Ship Shape (it's a cafe on the other side of the harbour in the arches and its really good) also there's the old WW2 air raid tunnels about a 5 or 6 minute walk from the harbour, head left with the cliffs on your left hand side.
If they're open and doing tours you should check it out, it's really interesting.
Also, there's tunnels all underground where the ships used to float barrels on beer to the pubs along the front.
Glad you had a good time :)
00:23 That door with rounded corners on the forward castle seems suspiciously modern to me. Also, these water drainage openings under the bridge parapet (00:30) do not look period-correct. Otherwise, a great replica, complete with dirty and worn board sides, like any ship in current working use.
@@lucianene7741 its a replica, but a modernised one. Cant imagine them sailing on a real old fashioned one. Still cool to see and be onboard to get an idea. Been a few comments, interesting ones, as I know nothing about boats.
Great to see sail ship again... Yeah look alike the black pearl of captain jack sparrow realy exist
Learned to waterski behind one. Great boats.
Interesting video,cheers.
I love water, but never done any water activities, as dont like deep water. God knows what's swimming underneath lol
@@goplaces1015What’s swimming underneath? It’s probably me…bwa ha ha.
The shape is a remarkable design, more like a SHOE, or TRAINER!
As long as it floats 😆
Muhtesem tasarım ve guzel işçilik . 👏
Beautiful
I think this must be where the term "learning the ropes" comes from.
Or being left out on the ropes?
That would make sense. There are A LOT of ropes. Apart from going over people's heads in the video, which resulted in not so good quality, I was still obsessed with all the masts and ropes.
And the Term Loose Cannon'''
No kidding, huh?😮
@@goplaces1015 Most of what you see are lines not ropes. A rope is not attached to anything. Usually a line has one end attached to something and has a specific purpose.
I would love to see her handling Rough seas!
This sailship it's so beautifully good sailship ohhhh yeahhhh
How about the inside the hull? The multi levels etc
What we could see, I filmed.
Am I mistaken in thinking this vessel is under sparred? It's missing top sails on all 3 masts.
acaba kolomp hangi efsaf teknelerle okyanusu aştı eni boyu yüksekliği neydi bu gemilerin, ele alan bir türkçe video ne kadar işe yarardı ayrıca beğendiğim bu video için teşekkürler saygı ile
First off , how many galleon's does it hold or maybe it's just a quart .
The wheel is from a much later period. It really clashes.
Nice looking ship ^^
What's the purpose of the object seen @ 09:41? It looks like some kind of cabestan (ratchet). Maybe to lift up the anchor?
Im no boat expert but looks like they put wooden planks maybe to turn it round and get the anchor up as you say. I dont even know the right words to use as dont know anything about boats really
@@goplaces1015 I think I know yet, since the anchors are at the front of the ship ; it must have another function. I guess it's to bring closer an enemy ship since it's located at the middle of the ship and near the cannons they used to fire some kind of harpoon bullet attached to a rope to catch the hull of the enemy's ship and immobilize it before boarding and plunder the shipment...
@@MrWookie21 Interesting. I go to most places as a "tourist" just to see something new/interesting. I do read info and that, but only remember bits that stand out to me.
@@goplaces1015 I noticed you filmed as an observer ; meaning being in the world but not taking part of it.
Tourism by the way is one of its ideology, most of people aren't aware of. It's related to tour and has a very specific aspect in the world. You can see many objects, places or infrastructures built on this concept. The hidden meaning is to keep people circling around and leave them in the same status in which they were when they have started circling. Just time have passed that has only a meaning for our lifetime on earth.
In your southern recent video, you filmed a ferris' wheel and a merry goes around carousel. People pay their ride to get circled. They go in attraction ferry grounds to be entertained. The carousel makes them spinning around while playing loud music ; then drops them out all staggering at the same place they embarked. Time passed, by taking away their illusion.
There are much more of such symbolic buildings in this entertainment world, as turnabouts, clocks, circling sports like cycling, motorcycling, or making people run around in stadiums, etc.
So, the question is what's the point behind this?
@@goplaces1015 Did you receive my answer?
how many miles of line are on her? looks like a few.
Amazing!}}}}
Tnx
That would be a blast to take out to sea!

lovely video make it phenominal with narration! i'd love to hear your thoughts and more about the details you find interesting!
I hate the sound of my voice, so will never speak over the video. My husband suggested subtitles of some sort, but I just upload videos as they are. I wouldn't know where to start with editing. Will think of maybe talking bit or adding subtitles. Also dont like to put music over videos, as like to hear the natural background sounds/noise.

The shape of this reminds me of drawings of the Mary Rose, which makes me wonder if anyone has thought about making a replica of Mary Rose.
meanwhile British who had one of the strongest navies in the world only have ships in museums.. :( imagine seeing HMS Warrior or HMS Victory sailing in the Solent
Saw her down in Weymouth, bit quieter where you were!
I only found about about it the night before, by chance on FB. Not sure where something like this would be advertised. Maybe that had something to do with it?
@@goplaces1015 I was similar with the Weymouth mooring, picked it up a day or so before on Facebook just by luck of the algorithm showing something useful for once!
@@ossirioth for once lol too true. I do follow lots of pages on Facebook to try keep up with different events and go see something new. Now I try and check regularly to see if any "replica" ships are visiting near by. Unfortunately places like Plymouth for example are too far away for me for a "day out".
España, un país con una gran tradición marinera y mucha historia, con muchas hazañas, olvidadas injustamente por la historia. Barcos como esté llegaron a crear un gran imperio y establecer un gran comercio con América. He podido visitar este magnífico barco en varias ocasiones.
No tan olvidadas, pero si pocas veces recordadas o mencionadas. Parte en culpa es los pocos intereses de estos temas por las nuevas generaciones. Y también por ciertos grupos ideológicos que quieren presentar esta parte de la historia de forma negativa.
Yo personalmente no me quejo de esa herencia de una particular zona geográfica de Europa. Y digo gracias a esos abuelos españoles, que sino hubiese sido por ellos, estaría viviendo en alguna jungla hoy en día. 😅
Lo del comercio con américa es más bien un eufemismo del saqueo en américa
Nice clean water
