HMAS ''Cook'' (GOR 291/A 219), named after Captain James Cook, was an oceanographic research vessel of the Royal Australian Navy (RAN).

''Cook'' was laid down by HMA Naval Dockyard at Williamstown, Victoria,〔Gillett, ''Australian and New Zealand Warships Since 1946'', p. 103〕 on 30 September 1974, launched on 27 August 1977 and commissioned into the RAN on 28 January 1980.〔 After a six-year construction period the ship spent another two years in dockyard hands fixing defects from the building period, including the realignment of the entire propulsion mechanism to reduce vibration.〔
''Cook'' paid off on 31 October 1990 and was sold for conversion to a merchant vessel. As of 2009, the vessel (named ''Cosmos'' and registered in the United Arab Emirates), was in the hands of Platinum Yachts for conversion into a private yacht, but work had been suspended.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Cosmos )〕
