Estramina (1803 ship) (original) (raw)
Estramina, originally called Extremeña, a two-masted schooner of 102 tons, was built at Guayaquil, in the Spanish Viceroyalty of Peru, now in modern-day Ecuador, and launched on 13 October 1803. A Spanish Naval vessel, it was pierced for 12 guns but was armed with only four 4-pounders and carried a crew of 18. It was commanded by Lieutenant Mariano Isasbiribil, and engaged in hydrographical surveys. One of Estramina's tasks was to evacuate the settlers, convicts, guards, and the like from Norfolk Island after the government in New South Wales decided to close the penal colony there.

| dbo:abstract | La Estramina, originalmente llamada Extremeña, era una goleta con dos mástiles construida en el puerto de Guayaquil, en el Virreinato del Perú -actual Ecuador-, y botada el 13 de octubre de 1803. Era una embarcación naval española que tenía cabida para 12 cañones, pero que sólo estaba armada con cuatro de estos, con una capacidad de 4 libras. Su tripulación era de apenas 18 hombres. Comandada por el teniente de la Armada Mariano Isasbiribil, realizó inspecciones hidrográficas. El 1 de octubre de 1804 fue capturado tras salir del puerto chileno de Caldera por el brigada armada Harrington y el capitán William Campbell. Tras su captura, cruzó el Pacífico hasta aguas australianas. Campbell probablemente creyó que la guerra entre Gran Bretaña y España, si no comenzaba ya, era inminente. Dio instrucciones a su equipo para esconder la embarcación en la bahía de Jervis, una pequeña bahía oceánica de unos 102 kilómetros cuadrados en la costa sur de Nueva Gales del Sur (Australia), mientras se navegaba hasta Sídney, donde Harrington pudo verificar el estado de las relaciones entre los dos países. Cuando Campbell llegó a Sídney, no hubo informes de que Gran Bretaña y España estuvieran en guerra cuando se apoderó de la Extremeña. El gobernador de Nueva Gales del Sur, Philip Gidley King al escuchar que el barco español se escondía en la Bahía de Jervis, ordenó que lo acompañaran a Sídney, donde fue detenido en espera de instrucciones del secretario de Estado para la Guerra del Reino Unido. King también escribió al gobernador de Chile para explicar que la Extremeña y otra nave, el bergantín an Francisco y San Pablo habían sido recuperados. El 23 de junio de 1805 se envió la correspondencia diplomática sobre este episodio que, sin embargo, nunca llegó a las autoridades después de desaparecer. El gobernador también informó el evento a William Marsden, primer secretario del Almirantazgo, declarando que la Extremeña había estado bajo el mando de don Antonio José del Campo, lo cual no era correcto. Su firma habría aparecido en documentos a bordo y había sido mal interpretada por el gobernador King y sus asesores, que tenían un conocimiento limitado del español. Mientras tanto, sobre la base de la opinión legal, se decidió vender la Extremeña en una subasta pública y mantener las ganancias en fideicomiso hasta que se pudiera realizar una adjudicación definitiva. En ese momento, el gobierno colonial necesitaba desesperadamente buques y decidió ofertar por el propio barco. La subasta se realizó el 12 de junio de 1806 y la goleta se entregó al gobierno por un valor de entonces 2.100 libras. Pasó a llamarse Estramina y brindó un servicio excelente durante muchos años bajo la propiedad del gobierno. Su último comandante fue Joseph Ross. El comandante de Newcastle, ciudad australiana, informó sobre el destino de Estramina, que había salido de puerto el viernes 19 de enero de 1816, con un fuerte viento y reflujo del noreste, viéndose obligada a soltar anclas. Desafortunadamente, se separó del grupo en el que iba y se dirigió hacia un banco de arena, encallando y perdiéndose. (es) Estramina, originally called Extremeña, a two-masted schooner of 102 tons, was built at Guayaquil, in the Spanish Viceroyalty of Peru, now in modern-day Ecuador, and launched on 13 October 1803. A Spanish Naval vessel, it was pierced for 12 guns but was armed with only four 4-pounders and carried a crew of 18. It was commanded by Lieutenant Mariano Isasbiribil, and engaged in hydrographical surveys. On 1 October 1804 it was seized from port of Caldera in Copiapo Bay, Chile, by the armed merchant brig Harrington, Captain William Campbell, and sailed across the Pacific into Australian waters. Campbell probably believed that war between Britain and Spain, if not commenced already, was imminent. He instructed his prize crew to hide Extremeña in Jervis Bay, which is 90 miles to the south of Sydney, New South Wales whilst he sailed to Sydney in Harrington to check on the state of relations between the two countries. When Campbell arrived in Sydney there were no reports that Britain and Spain had been at war when he had seized Extremeña. The Governor of New South Wales, Captain Philip Gidley King RN (1800–06), hearing the Spanish vessel was hiding in Jervis Bay, ordered it to be escorted to Sydney where it was detained pending instructions from the Secretary of State for War and the Colonies in London. King also wrote to the Governor of Chile to explain that Extremeña and a Spanish merchant brig St Francisco & St Paulo had been recovered. The diplomatic correspondence was dispatched on His Majesty's Colonial Cutter Integrity on 23 June 1805, but never arrived as Integrity was lost with all hands and without trace. The Governor also reported the event to William Marsden, First Secretary to the Admiralty (1804-1807), stating that Extremeña had been under the command of Don Antonio José del Campo, which was not correct. The position of del Campo would, in the twentieth century, be called Extremeña's executive officer. His signature would have appeared on documents on board and been misinterpreted by Governor King and his advisors who had a limited knowledge of Spanish. Several authors have since copied this error. Meanwhile, based on legal opinion, it was decided to sell Extremeña at public auction and hold the proceeds in trust until a final adjudication could be made. At the time the colonial government was in desperate need of vessels and decided to bid for the vessel itself. The auction took place on 12 June 1806 and the schooner went to the government for £2,100. It was renamed Estramina and gave excellent service for many years under government ownership. Its last commander was Joseph Ross. One of Estramina's tasks was to evacuate the settlers, convicts, guards, and the like from Norfolk Island after the government in New South Wales decided to close the penal colony there. The fate of Estramina was reported by the Commandant at Newcastle, New South Wales, Australia, on Friday 19 January 1816, as the vessel was beating out of the harbour with a strong north-east wind and ebb tide, she was obliged to come to anchor, which parted, and she drifted onto a sand bank, then broke up.
