The 1715 Treasure Fleet was actually a combination of two Spanish treasure fleets returning from the New World to Spain, the "Nueva España Fleet", under Capt.-General Don Juan Esteban de Ubilla, and the "Tierra Firme Fleet", under Don Antonio de Echeverz y Zubiza. At two in the morning on Wednesday, July 31, 1715, seven days after departing from Havana, Cuba, all eleven ships of the fleet were lost in a hurricane along the east coast of Florida. A 12th ship, the French frigate "Le Grifon", had sailed with the fleet. Its captain was unfamiliar with the Florida coastline and elected to stay further out to sea. The "Grifon" safely returned to Europe.

  • Der Untergang der Silberflotte in einem Hurrikan im Juli 1715 vor Florida war ein Schiffsunglück im 18. Jahrhundert. Bei der Katastrophe sanken elf Schiffe einer spanischen Silberflotte, die die Profite aus den spanischen Kolonien in Amerika nach Spanien bringen sollten. (de)
  • Le trésor de la flotte espagnole de 1715 est la cargaison d'un convoi de la Flotte des Indes (Dont le Urca de Lima) allant en Espagne après son passage au Nouveau Monde (Amérique). Le 31 juillet 1715, sept jours après le départ de La Havane, à Cuba, les onze navires de cette flotte ont été perdus dans une tempête près de l'actuelle Floride, aux États-Unis. La flotte transportait notamment de l'argent et une partie de la cargaison a été récupérée en 1716. (fr)
  • Срібний флот 1715 року — один з численних Срібних флотів Іспанської імперії, що на регулярній основі перевозили здобуті в Новому Світі дорогоцінні метали та рідкісні товари в метрополію і складався з 11 кораблів. В ніч з 30 на 31 липня 1715 року, через сім днів після виходу з Гавани на Кубі, усі одинадцять іспанських кораблів флоту загинули в урагані біля східного узбережжя Флориди. Деякі артефакти та монети Срібного флоту 1715 року дотепер час від часу знаходять на Узбережжі скарбів у Флориді. (uk)

  • The 1715 Treasure Fleet was actually a combination of two Spanish treasure fleets returning from the New World to Spain, the "Nueva España Fleet", under Capt.-General Don Juan Esteban de Ubilla, and the "Tierra Firme Fleet", under Don Antonio de Echeverz y Zubiza. At two in the morning on Wednesday, July 31, 1715, seven days after departing from Havana, Cuba, all eleven ships of the fleet were lost in a hurricane along the east coast of Florida. A 12th ship, the French frigate "Le Grifon", had sailed with the fleet. Its captain was unfamiliar with the Florida coastline and elected to stay further out to sea. The "Grifon" safely returned to Europe. Because the fleet was carrying silver, it is also known as the 1715 Plate Fleet (plata being the Spanish word for silver). Some artifacts and even coins still wash up on Florida beaches from time to time. According to Cuban records, around 1,500 sailors perished while a small number survived in lifeboats. Many ships, including pirates, took part in the initial salvage. Initially a privateer, Henry Jennings was first accused of piracy for attacking such salvage ships and claiming their salvages. (en)
