The Last Voyage of the Isabel
A battered survivor, John Stephens, recalls a South Atlantic voyage and a treasure hunt. Francisco De Castillo and crew plot to seize a Spanish galleon Donna Isabel with 3,000,000 pesos aboard. The plan uses a steamship Sea Queen then a schooner rig to outrun fleets and hide the gold offshore Patagonian waters.
