The San Juan Nepomuceno

San Juan Nepomuceno was a Spanish ship of the line launched in 1765. Captured by the British Royal Navy during the Battle of Trafalgar, the ship was renamed first HMS Berwick, then HMS San Juan.

The ship was eventually discarded in 1816. This version of the ship represents the 1795, fully loaded version with all 74 guns. This was my first wooden ship-building experience, and while there are some modifications and additions, it is pretty much constructed following the plans.
