To answer the question put to me: Is "Trafalgar" mentioned in any of the Ransome books? My answer is, "No."
Be aware of course that such an answer coming from the scanning of the TEXT copies of Ransome's chapters are always subject to the oddities of my own typing, as perhaps a misplaced character in the wrong place could obscure the desired reference, as a recent OOPS regarding looking for CHRISTMAS found one that should have been CHRISTIANS. Oh well, never claimed to be perfect, as that would take the mystery out of it all.
And for the fun of it, ran the same scan for "Trafalgar" on WIND IN THE WILLOWS, and no surprise here, did not find any reference to same. This conclusion of course is subject to the same disclaimer previously shown above.
Any other keywords need searching for?
