[MR] Wikipedia: Ship Victoria Sails Around the World

[Garth Groff via Atlantia]

Noble Friends,

On this day in 1522 the Spanish carrack (also called a "nao") Victoria 
returned to Spain after sailing around the world. Victoria was the last 
of five ships commanded by Ferdinand Magellan that set out in 1521. Only 
18 survivors came home aboard Victoria:

Note that two replicas of Victoria have been built and are still sailing.

Yours Aye,
