Santa Maria Madre de Deus

Good day all,
my name is Patrick, I am German but I live and work in South Africa.
One of my greatest passion is wreck diving, and here in the Eastern Cape at the "Wild Coast"
we lots of wrecks. I am interested in the history of the Portuguese ship (Carrack) Santa Maria Madre de Deus,
sank at the Wild Coast 1643.
I can not find any information's about that ship via google.
Please can someone help me to find/search in the right forums for information's, build where, dimensions, crew, came from sailing to where, cargo ?

Many thanks and kind regards...
Paddy
