Golden Hind - Mamoli MV30- wooden ship model kit

Golden Hind model - Ship of Sir Francis Drake - wooden ship model kit

Mamoli - no. MV30 - scale 1:53

The Golden Hind took its name from the golden figure appearing on the coat of arms of Lord C. C. Hatton's family, who financed Sir Francis Drake's circumnavigation of the globe. A smaller galleon, the Golden Hind does not differ in construction from other ships of its class. Simple lines, no decoration except for the stern, low foredeck and classic masting. On December 13, 1577, Sir Francis Drake, aboard the galleon “Golden Hind,” along with four other ships, set out on the most famous voyage in English naval history. After a difficult passage through the Strait of Magellan, due to terrible storms in which two ships were wrecked, he moored in the port of Valparaiso. He then followed the coasts of Chile and Peru, plundering Spanish ports and ships and capturing enormous booty. He then sailed all the way to California.
