SpainThe tonnage of the galleon and other ships —San Antón, Santiago and San Amaro— is unknown. Considering that the remains of the hull found at Emanuel Point Shipwreck are too large to belong to a boat, frigate or caravel, they are most likely to have belonged to a galleon.
The remains found at the so-called Emanuel Point I Shipwreck or Emanuel Point II could belong to this wreck.
