HMS Adventure (1771)

HMS ''Adventure'' was a barque that the Royal Navy purchased in 1771. She had been the merchant vessel ''Marquis of Rockingham'', launched in 1770 at Whitby. In naval service she sailed with ''Resolution'' on James Cook's second expedition to the Pacific in 1772–1775. She was the first ship to circumnavigate the globe from west to east. After her return she served as a store ship until 1779. The navy sold her in 1783 and she resumed a civilian career, but retaining the name ''Adventure''. She was lost in May 1811.
==Career==
She began her career as the North Sea collier ''Marquis of Rockingham'', launched at Whitby in 1770.
Soon after his return from his first voyage in 1771, Commander Cook was commissioned by the Royal Society of London to make a second voyage in search of a supposed southern continent, Terra Australis Incognita. He arranged for the Navy to purchase two ships, the second and smaller of which was ''Marquis of Rockingham''.
The Navy purchased her in 1771 and first named her ''Raleigh'' or ''Rayleigh'', and then ''Adventure''. The Navy commissioned her under Joseph Shank.〔
Cook was given the command of ''Resolution'', with Commander Tobias Furneaux accompanying him in ''Adventure'', having replaced Shank. Furneaux was an experienced explorer, having served on Samuel Wallis's circumnavigation in ''Dolphin'' in 1766–1768.
''Resolution'' and ''Adventure'' left Plymouth on 13 July 1772 and on 17 January 1773 were the first European ships to cross the Antarctic Circle. On 8 February 1773 the two ships became separated in a fog and Furneaux directed ''Adventure'' towards the prearranged meeting point of Queen Charlotte Sound, New Zealand, charted by Cook in 1770.
On the way to the rendezvous, ''Adventure'' surveyed the southern and eastern coasts of Tasmania (then known as "Van Diemen's Land"), where Adventure Bay was named for the ship. Furneaux made the earliest British chart of this shore, but as he did not enter Bass Strait he assumed Tasmania to be part of Australia. Most of his names here survive; Cook, visiting this shore-line on his third voyage, confirmed Furneaux's account and delineation of it, and named after him the islands in Banks Strait.
''Adventure'' arrived at Queen Charlotte Sound on 7 May 1773 and ''Resolution'' followed on 17 May. From June to October the two ships explored the southern Pacific, reaching Tahiti on 15 August, where Omai of Ra'iatea embarked on ''Adventure'' (Omai later became the first Pacific Islander to visit Europe before returning to Tahiti with Cook in 1776). After calling at Tonga in the Friendly Islands the ships returned to New Zealand but were separated by a storm on 22 October. This time the rendezvous at Queen Charlotte Sound was missed — ''Resolution'' departed on 26 November, four days before ''Adventure'' arrived. Cook had left a message buried in the sand setting out his plan to explore the South Pacific and return to New Zealand. Furneaux decided to return home and buried a reply to that effect.
Before he could leave, a fight broke out between ''Adventure's'' crew and the local Māori people, in which ten crewmen and two Māoris were killed. This was reportedly prompted by an unknowing breach of tapu by a sailor, who placed a tin can that had held food on a chief's head.〔George Clarke (1903). ''(Notes on Early Life in New Zealand )'', (Chapter I ), p. 27.〕
''Adventure'' set out for home on 22 December 1773 via Cape Horn, She returned to England on 14 July 1774 and entered the double dock in the Royal Dockyard at Deptford where between March and May 1775 she was converted into a store ship for Halifax, Canada.〔〔
Lieutenant John Hallum recommissioned ''Adventure'' in March 1775. He sailed for North America on 26 June 1775. In November 1777 Lieutenant Hugh Tolken replaced Hallum at Boston.〔 Between January and March 1779 she underwent refitting at Deptford Dockyard.〔

Henry Trubshaw Bell, Coxswain of was appointed as boatswain on 30 August 1779, at Halifax. The log for 5 September 1779 shows that “this day 8 men deserted the ship. Ditto took two of them again by information and confined them in irons”.
''Adventure'' set sail from Halifax on 26 October 1779, in company with the ships ''Keppel'', ''Royal Briton'' and ''Dunmore''. She sailed mainly in fresh or hard gales for most of the 36 days it took to reach Spithead, which is situated at the eastern part of the channel between Hampshire, England, and the Isle of Wight at Portsmouth. The voyage was not without its tensions. The log records that on 6 December 1779, the Captain “punished William Pritt with two dozen lashes for striking the boatswain and carpenter”. ''Adventure'' arrived at Sheerness in December 1779,〔 and was paid off on 13 January 1780. She underwent fitting as a fireship, but was never employed in that role.〔
''Adventure'' was laid up at Sheerness until the Navy sold her on 7 May 1883 for £900,〔 apparently to her original owners.
