Neapolitan ship Gioacchino (1812) Informations

The Gioacchino was a Téméraire class 74-gun ship of the line of the Real Marina of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.

Gioacchino was built by engineers Jean-François Lafosse and Philippe Greslé after plans by Sané. In April 1815, she was seized by the British, but returned to Napoli in December 1815, where she served as San Fernando. In May 1820, an accidental fire damaged her beyond repair and she was sold for scrap.
