Project Aims To Raise Drake Era Ship From Thames Mud
London archaeologists led by Peter Marsden seek the Golden Hind, Sir Francis Drake's 16th century vessel, buried in Deptford mud. A Dutch firm backs the dig with a London newspaper, hoping to locate the keel, ribs, and bottom of the 80 foot ship once lauded by Queen Elizabeth I.
