Discovery (1602 ship)
''Discovery'' or ''Discoverie'' was a small 20-ton, 38 foot (12 m) long "fly-boat" of the British East India Company, launched before 1602. The ship was one of three that participated in the voyage that led to the founding of Jamestown, Virginia.
==History==
''Discovery'' was the smallest of three ships that were led by Captain Christopher Newport on the voyage that resulted in the founding of Jamestown in the new Colony of Virginia in 1607. When Captain Newport returned to London, England, he left ''Discovery'' behind for the use of the colonists.
She took part in six expeditions in search of the Northwest Passage. During the 1610-1611 expedition in the Canadian arctic, the crew of ''Discovery'' mutinied, and set their captain Henry Hudson adrift in a small boat; he was not seen again, and the crew returned to England.
