English ship Rainbow (1586)
''Rainbow''〔The 'HMS' prefix was not used until the middle of the 18th century, but is sometimes applied retrospectively〕 was a galleon of the English Tudor navy, built at Deptford Dockyard by Peter Pett (the first of that name in this extensive family), and launched in 1586. Commanded by Sir Hugh Seymour, she fought against the Spanish during the Singeing the King of Spain's Beard and the Spanish Armada, including the Battle of Gravelines in 1588.
In 1617 ''Rainbow'' was rebuilt at Deptford as a great ship (now described as a "second rate"), mounting 34 major and 6 smaller guns.〔 She was again reconstructed in 1628-29 at Chatham, although the work was classed as a "repair" rather than as an official rebuilding. By 1660 her armament had increased to 56 guns.〔
She took an active role in all three Anglo-Dutch Wars of the 17th century, participating in most of the battles of those wars, and was sunk as a breakwater at Sheerness in 1680.〔
