Reina Mercedes Now A U S Training Ship In New York
The Reina Mercedes, Spain’s famed war trophy from the Santiago engagement, is serving the United States as a training ship in New York. The vessel, 275 feet long with 3,000 tons displacement, once carried 400 sailors and a heavy armament. After being raised from the harbor and towed to Newport News, a plan to fit her for sea service was debated amid mixed views on a Spanish-named ship. Today she serves in a new capacity for the United States.
