HMS Squirrel (1570s)

HMS Squirrel was an exploration vessel launched in the 1570s and lost with all hands in 1583. In the 1570s Squirrel made a return voyage from England to Narragansett Bay, piloted by Simon Fernandez. The voyage was considered remarkable given her small size and the dangers of sailing in largely uncharted waters. At twelve o'clock that night the Squirrel's lights suddenly disappeared, and she was seen no more. Captain Edward Hayes, Golden Hind9 September 1583.
