"Brilliant reproduction... detail is wonderful! Even though the weather was awful our guide painted a picture of what life would have been life in Sir Francis Drake's time. Plenty to see on board. Coupled with the information from the guide, it was a wonderful way to spend part of the morning. Even this replica has been around the world!!!" - Review
