In 1598 the adventurer Samuel Tompkin sailed his ship The Happy Sally around the world in search of treasure. His adventures are well known. The most famous adventure of
them all is when he met a sea monster off the Cape of Good Chickens near Madamamar. In his diary, Samuel tells us that the weather had been foul that day. ‘The waves pounded the ship, whilst thunder and lightning lit up the sky. A thick fog drifted in front of us and rearing out of the fog came the most enormous beast we had ever seen in our lives.’ Samuel Tompkin then tells of their terror as the monster flipped the ship upside down, tipping the sailors into the sea.
