Nuestra Señora de la Santísima Trinidad, nicknamed La Real, was a ship of the line of the Spanish Navy which was the largest warship in the world when launched. She originally mounted 112 guns, which was increased between 1795 and 1796 to 130 guns by closing in the spar deck between the quarterdeck and forecastle. In 1802 Santísima Trinidad was further upgraded to 140 guns, including four guns on the poop deck, effectively creating a continuous fourth gundeck, although the extra guns added were relatively small. She was the most heavily armed ship in the world when rebuilt, and bore the most guns of any ship of the line outfitted in the Age of Sail.

“Enemy ship sighted to the North!”
“Roger that! Commence removal of ‘North’!”
Didn’t go well… Battle of Trafalger
Hehe poop deck.
Yes, I know that’s not where the poop goes since it’s originally a Fr🤮nch term for stern, but in my head cannon it is.
I like to shoot grapeshot out of my head cannon
Meanwhile the Dutch:
We’ll casually navigate up the river Medway and destroy the entire British fleet in the harbour
