The Golden Hind (or Golden Hinde) was an English galeon best known for its circumnavigation of the globe between 1577 and 1580, captained by Sir Francis Drake. She was originally known as the Pelican, but was renamed by Drake mid-voyage in 1578, as he prepared to enter the Strait of Magellan, calling it Golden Hind to compliment his patron, Sir Christopher Hatton, whose armorial crest was golden "hind" (the heraldic term for a female deer). hatton was one principal sponsors of Drake's world voyage.

the Golden Hind was constructed in the the shipyards at Aldeburgh, Suffolk circa 1574 and moved to Plymouth, Devon in 1576 for use by Sir Francis Drake
A replica of the Golden Hind had been at Southend for as long as I can remember. It lay alongside the pier. I went to Southend last Saturday, 11/8/07, and discovered it had been replaced by Adventure Island. There is still a galleon type vessel in that spot but it is NOT called the Golden Hind. So it would appear that the Adventure Island galleon replaced the Golden Hind within the last few years.
The original ship Golden Hind, used by Sir Francis Drake to circumnavigate the globe, served as a display vessel after his return. It remained on display in England for about 100 years, until it had finally rotted to the point where it was broken up.There have been replicas made, and one now sits in London.
