More about this scene
Southend is not where one might expect to find Drake's famous ship. In fact, this is a full-sized replica, built in 1949 by twelve local mariners. Madame Tussaud's provided wax figures of Sir Francis and his crew. In recent years, it has been replaced by another facsimile ship: Blackbeard's Queen Anne's Revenge.
