The action of 28 November 1751 was a naval engagement off Cape St. Vincent between a squadron of two Spanish ships of the line under captain Pedro Fitz-James Stuart and an Algerine squadron of two ships of the line under corsair Mohammed Chirif, which was fought from November 28 to December 2, 1751, and resulted in a victory for the Spanish fleet. The Algerine ships had come from the port of Algiers, and were acting as corsairs, conducting commerce raiding against Christian merchant ships and enslaving their crews. This was part of the Barbary slave trade, where the Barbary states, autonomous vassals of the Ottoman Empire, raided Christian settlements and merchant vessels for slaves to sell in their own cities. The corsairs targeted Spain, a Christian country, and the Spanish Navy was sent

  • La acción del 28 de noviembre de 1751 fue un combate naval durante los conflictos hispano-berberiscos, librado cerca del cabo de San Vicente entre un escuadrón español de dos navíos de línea a las órdenes del capitán Pedro Fitz-James Stuart y un escuadrón argelino de iguales fuerzas. Los barcos de Fitz-James Stuart persiguieron a uno de los bajeles corsarios y lograron forzarlo a rendirse después de un feroz intercambio de proyectiles. Aquel quedó severamente dañado y tuvo que ser echado a pique, pero su tripulación superviviente y cincuenta esclavos cristianos fueron rescatados y llevados a bordo del buque insignia del capitán español.
