One of the fi rst decisions taken by Bernardo O’Higgins when he became Supreme Directorof Chile was to build up a naval force capable to dispute the control of the sea to the PeruvianViceroyalty forces. This article explores the motivations that might have led him to realize theimportance of this effort, by reviewing his previous maritime experiences, fi rst in a convoycrossing the Atlantic under the protection of the Malaspina expedition corvettes, and later onwhen the frigate on which he headed from Cadiz to Buenos Aires was captured by a Britishsquadron. |
