New edition of my spanish book and soon in English

A new track for 1605's galleons?

Much more mystery to the history of Mysterious Island.
As I report in my book Gallons an sunken treasure, in 1605 disappeared four richest galleons of Tierra Firme armada , but a strange new track further complicated these intriguing and exciting shipwrecks: Captain Francisco Calderon, on February 19, 1629 from Madrid, when applying for a grant states that in 1605, was approved by the Audiencia of Panama to travel to Spain, and embarked in one of the galleons of Luis Fernandez de Cordoba, and the galleon in which he had embarked was lost and he lost all his money, but he escaped in a boat and went ashore on the island of Cuba.

AGI, section Mexico, bundle 147

This is new because until now it was thought that there were no survivors.
Cheers VV

I thought the Santisma Trinidad sank off Colorado Reefs in Cuba on 1711. Unless there is another ship with the same name.

Hi guys,
we talking about the Santisima Trinidad , Battle of Trafalgar (1805), the one and only vassel with four decks and armed with 140 cannons (amazing) that sunk in the area of Camarinal point, to be towed to Gibraltar as a prize.
