Five Galleons departed on December 13, 1577 from Plymouth, England, led by Francis Drake and his galleon, the Pelican. When the expedition crossed the Strait of Magellan, The Pelican was renamed The Golden Hind in honor of one of the patrons of the trip, Sir Christopher Hatton, whose coat of arms was a golden hind. The Golden Hind is known for circumnavigating the world during the years 1577-1580. After travelling 40,000 miles, Drake returned to England with treasures from conquered lands. In 1581, Queen Isabel I knighted Drake. Scale: 1:85 Height: 17.7 inches Width: 9 inches Length: 25.3 inches
