While sailing near the town of Cartagena, in modern-day Spain, the ship's crew of about a dozen men was attacked by two pirate vessels . One of them was commanded by a man named Antonio "Botafoc." The word botaf o c means "fire blast" or "fire fart" — his real last name is lost to history. The other ship was commanded by Martin Yanes.
