Battle of Havana (1748)
The Battle of Havana was an engagement between the British Caribbean squadron and a Spanish squadron based near Havana. After a number of abortive attacks, the British succeeded in driving the Spaniards back to their harbour after capturing the Conquistador and running the vice-admiral's ship on shore where she blew up.
