Sebastian del Cano took command of the last three ships.  He burned Concepcion one of the three ships because it was damgaed by shipworms, and sailed off to the Spice Islands.   Then Trinidad began to leak and that had to be abandond.  The last ship was the Victoria (pictured at the right), which was commanded by Sebastion del Cano.  Forty-seven Europeans and 13 natives went abord the ship for Spain.   The Victoria continued west and made it to Cape of Good Hope and then North across the Atlantic.  They arrived at Seville on September 8, 1522.  Only 17 Europeans and 4 East Indians were still alive.  After about 3 years, the vessel Victoria had sailed the globe.
