SAN-JUAN – Instructions

History of the San Juan Felucca

Following the War of Independence, after Spain had lost her American colonies, merchant marine ships all but disappeared from the peninsula, leaving only small coastal sailing boats behind to re-establish the routes to the Antilles. Through the Royal Decree issued by Charles III, trade was re-opened with those colonies that remained faithful and it was the felucca, “San Juan” (El Glorioso), that made the first voyage.
