Golden Hinde.

Golden Hinde. Review

The Golden Hinde . Famed Elizabethan explorer Sir Francis Drake circumnavigated the globe in a little galleon just like this one. Launched in 1973, this exact replica made two round-the-world voyages and called in at ports—many along the Pacific and Atlantic coasts of the United States—to do duty as a maritime museum. Now berthed at the St. Mary Overie Dock, the ship continues its educational purpose, complete with "crew" in period costumes and five decks of artifacts. Call for information on guided tours.
