Шаблон:Infobox ship imageШаблон:Infobox ship careerШаблон:Infobox ship characteristicsForesight[Note 1] was a 28-gun galleon of the English Tudor navy, built by Mathew Baker at Deptford Dockyard and launched in 1570. It was a radical innovation over contemporary ships. When John Hawkins became Treasurer of the Navy in 1577, he had sailed all over the world, and his ideas contributed to the production of a new race-built series of galleons - of which the Foresight was the first - without the high fore- and after-castles prevalent in earlier galleons; these "marvels of marine design" could reputedly "run circles around the clumsier Spanish competition."[1] As such, the Foresight was part of the English fleet which destroyed most of the Spanish Armada in 1588.
She was broken up in 1604.
