The Matthew is a replica of the ship which took John Cabot and crew to discover Newfoundland in the 1400's although it is known that ships were sailing from Bristol to the rich fishing grounds of NF long before that.
The ship looks small and fragile from a distance but it had recently crossed from Brittany in mountainous seas.
The red monument represents looking out to sea and back at land.
Aye,aye captain!
