Wikipedia:Juan Cabrillo (character)

Juan Cabrillo is a fictional character in the Oregon Files series of adventure novels by Clive Cussler. The series revolves around the Oregon, a state-of-the-art maritime vessel disguised as a rusting heap of junk. Cabrillo is the main character of the series as chairman of The Corporation and in charge of the ship and its crew. He shares his name with João Rodrigues Cabrilho (Juan Rodríguez Cabrillo in Spanish), a Portuguese conquistador from the time of Hernán Cortés.

Juan is an ex-CIA agent and his old CIA boss, Langston Overholt IV, is his contact for taking missions. He takes missions from others as well, as long as they do not harm American interests.

Unlike Cussler's heroes Dirk Pitt and Kurt Austin, Cabrillo is not a womanizer. His wife died while driving when drunk. His weapon of choice is the FN Five-seven semi-automatic pistol.
