Battle is joined. #OnThisDay, 1588 the English Fleet first engaged with the #SpanishArmada, at Eddystone Rocks off the coast of Plymouth. After a fierce but inconclusive naval skirmish; Francis Drake turned his ship 'Revenge' back to loot the abandoned Spanish ships at nightfall.

#MerryChristmas from The Golden Hinde: we wish you happiness & smooth-sailing! Our artist Yasemin has imagined our figurehead come to life, with a very shiny nose (This would have been a handy way to avoid the fog, whirlpools, icebergs & storms the Elizabethan crew encountered)!

#OnThisDay in 1850, a significant nautical discovery was made... Irish explorer Robert McClure was the first person to discover the Northwest passage: the sea route between the Arctic & Atlantic oceans. Rumoured and sought-after for centuries: he traversed it by ship - & sledge!

There's a storm coming... #OnThisDay in 1588; the SPANISH ARMADA, led by the Duke of Medina-Sidonia, departed Lisbon to invade England...

Today's #FolkloreThursday theme is the folklore of #women. Meet the greatest pirate ever: Ching Shih (1775-1844). She commanded 1200 ships & 75000 #pirates & triumphed against the English, Portuguese & Chinese navies! So respected, she became Lin Zexu's advisor in the Opium Wars

This week's #FolkloreThursday theme is #SeasandRivers. 'Drake’s Leat' is a watercourse flowing from Dartmoor to Plymouth. According to legend, #FrancisDrake bewitched a spring “with magical words and starting away at a gallop, the stream followed his horse’s heels into the town.”

Many thanks to @NatHistShips for featuring our podcast and video series on the great @ShipshapeNet. It's a pleasure voyaging with you! https://t.co/PtwIO3f0sx

Today's #FolkloreThursday theme is #writing & #symbols for #InternationalLiteracyDay. According to legend #PIRATE mutineers invented the 'round robin'. A contract with the signatures arranged in a circle. If the mutiny was discovered, it was impossible to know who the leader was!
