- 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.
Вот он, сон ставший явью. Живая история. Преемственность поколений. Радость детей, и предмет гордости взрослых. Разумно потраченные деньги наконец. Под флагом гордым Испании, если кто плохо знает историю, то Испания была некогда владычицей морей.)
Классный галеон.
What a masterwork of a ship! 🙌🏽
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.
She’s magnificent!!❤
What a wonderful replica! This is like a time capsule. It looks like no expense was spared.
Built by John Hammond.
@@FryingTiger John Hammond must be a genius.
@@FryingTiger Sorry, this galeon was designed and built by Ignacio Fernandez Vial in Andalucia Spain in 2010
@@grandpastrip4399 its a Jurassic Park joke- John Hammond built Jurassic Park and he "spared no expense"

@@FryingTiger you beat me too it lol
And built without power tools, back in the day. Amazing craftsmanship.
Surreal, que galeão magnífico. Muito obrigado por compartilhar. Saudações do Brasil.
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.
That was very nice. Thank you for the wonderful video tour.
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.

Beautiful ship
Thank you for sharing from Florida. Beautiful. Arrrrrrr
Beautiful Sailingship ...
Thank you very much for sharing, appreciate it a lot 👍
Greets from the Netherlands, T.
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.
Very interesting thank you for showing us this fantastic video well done 👍
Amazing, great to see👌
Very cool, thanks.👍
she looks fantastic, i love it
Beautiful ❤❤❤
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
Very nice. One must appreciate the technology of the Era.
Not as dumb and backwards as most people imagine medieval people to have been.
Belissima galé ...emoções....voltei ao sec. 16.... Parabéns....
Buen vídeo, muy bien llevado, y precioso barco.
Gracias por compartirlo. 👍
Steering wheels for ships were introduced only very late in the 17th or early in the 18th century. Prior to that the tiller was moved by a whipstaff.
Que Viva España! Y Que Viva El Rey!
Un splendide bateaux de collection.
Superb galleon and so solid and well built.
Muhtesem tasarım ve guzel işçilik . 👏
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.
At certain angles she almost looks ironclad. What a beauty.
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.
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 🏴☠😅
Nice looking ship ^^
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
Mind boggling the amount of scarce materials and skilled labor in the thing.
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 .
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 ✅️ 😁
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.
Groovy video
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.
Very nice!
Большое спасибо за подробный обзор.
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
I was there too. Great 👍
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.
@@user-td6rh6rj7r 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.
@@user-fj4qp5eo5j and then lost a few more doing the around the UK and into ever worse weather!!!
Thanks for sharing
Crafters wood masterpiece of the era sea elegance and war ship ingenious.
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 👍
Amazing replica, royal navy Mary rose, was pretty big, at 800t, had steep bow, stern castles.
The Mary Rose was a Carrack, a purpose built warship and precursor of the Galleon. Whereas the Galleon was smaller and simpler in construction, the Carrack was heavier and more sturdier at sea.
nice ship 👍👍
Linda embarcação👏
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 .
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.
bellissima..
This sailship it's so beautifully good sailship ohhhh yeahhhh
Amazing!}}}}
Tnx
Huge ships. That sailed across the oceans .
JULIA, PARABÉNS, PELO TRABALHO, FURTADO SUL DO BRASIL VIZINHO ARGENTINA
The shape is a remarkable design, more like a SHOE, or TRAINER!
As long as it floats 😆
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.
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
Great to see sail ship again... Yeah look alike the black pearl of captain jack sparrow realy exist
all I can visualize is cannon balls rolling all over the floor!!
The wheel is from a much later period. It really clashes.
That would be a blast to take out to sea!
I would feel very safe sailing these back then.
Una belleza...... Septiembre 9-23
The armada if not for the storm ⛈️ may have changed the course of English language around the world 😊
What few people know is that after the Spanish armada fiasco, a similar fate happened to the English navy when they unsuccessfully tried to counterattack Spain. Suffering the same fate of getting caught in a storm at sea. It's the seldom told story of the English armada.
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 :)
SUPER..
Man , if you were a rope salesman back in those days you were probably living a great lifestyle .
Agreed. Was too much on the roaps. But in my defence, my 1st time videoing a boat and also, i go higher sometimes to avoid people. Im not a super skilled videographer, prefer taking pics. I do it as a hobby
I would love to see her handling Rough seas!
Es bellísimo ese barco no se como le llamen ahí pero esta bien echó
Must be visited!
Its not in UK anymore. Was a temporary visit. But if you Google it, you will see where it is atm.
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.
Este Jack anda por todos lados
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.
@@goplaces1015 it is a lovely video, definitely don’t let my comment slow you down!
@@robertweeks4240 feedback is always good to have, especially if you want people to watch your videos 👍😁
A little more than halfway through the video I was thinking, “can somebody please get that kid a lollipop or something to shut him/her up?”.
😅🤣
Memória galeão português princípio de tudo. Maiores navegantes todos copiaram.
I can't believe they launched planes off these things.
No way a ship of this period had so much head room!
have been on her she's absolutley amazing
I just saw yesterday that its back again in Ramsgate this july. Im gonna try go again and hopefully wont be busy so that can get a better video.
Good material, but a camera too nervous!
Yes, it is. It's mostly because when I video I try not to get people in the frame. Also, I get a bit self conscious when a lot of people around and tend to rush the camera. I do need to improve my video skills. Glad you liked it though 😁
The great vintage ship old is gold tred marc vasko d
Excellent!
une arnaque ! ce n 'est pas une réplique . i should be very surprised to see her at deep waters .
Ooo made in Spain very good
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".
A work pg Art.
Right On
This ship docked at the fishing port next to our marina a few weeks ago. The marina officials agreed to let the crew use our facilities as there are not, apparently, proper washrooms/toilets onboard. The "crew" proceeded to abuse this hospitality so much so that the cleaners complained and local boatowners found themselves locked out of the toilets for long periods. One person left a toilet door open, so when I pulled it, I saw a guy sitting with earphones on reading and not actually doing what the toilet was designed for! I was appalled by their cleanliness watching several wandering around the local supermarket dirty and barefoot. Frankly, I have described them as "pikies." May other authorities which welcome this ship be very wary of the people carried in it. Sailors they are not....representatves of 17th century street life, possibly.
Lindo!
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
By chance I got to see this beauty in Cape Charles Virginia.
Same here. Saw it advertised a day before.
My ancestors came to America from England on similar ships in the 1640s which is why I was in Cape Charles. I still have family who live in the area. @@goplaces1015
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.
Nice ship, though had to skip most of it as I thought I was back doing aerobatics in some crazy aircraft. Sorry, was the camera mounted on a jelly?
I was trying to avoid filming people lol
Looks romantic, but was hell on earth...
Back in the old days I bet yes.
Thanks for video!
Dang I want one
