San Salvador

A replica ship built by the Maritime Museum of San Diego.

"The San Salvador under the command of Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo, arrived at the port we now call San Diego on September 28, 1542, before proceeding further north in search of new trade routes that would link Mexico to Asia and Europe.
She was the first recorded European vessel to sail along Southern California, and survey its coastline."
