The main reasons Britain won the battle of Trafalgar was their superiority in ships. The Britsh were better equipped in a post revolutionary country, while France was undergoing the revolutioin right then and Spain was still years away from revolution. The British had superior rate of firing cannons along with the startegic brilliance of Admirl Nelson widely regarded as the most brilliant naval commander of all time.
Last but not least we have to take into consideration that the majority of French Navy's officers were killed during the first years of the Revolution because they were aristocrats so that the French Fleet lacked of experienced and skilled leaders starting from rank of Admiral going down to its lower ranks.
Furthermore, it should be worth of mention that the French never adopted the "carronade" which was the most effective piece of ordnance at short range naval combat of the time and equipped all Ships of the Line of Britain.
Indeed the genius of Napoleon didn't cover the naval warfare, which he more or less always underestimated and neglected as a secondary factor of strategy.
