James Cook (1728 – 1779), ook wel bekend als kapitein Cook, was een Britse zeevaarder en cartograaf. Hij werd vooral bekend vanwege zijn drie ontdekkingstochten naar de Grote Oceaan. Het museum in de haven van Whitby is gevestigd in het 17e eeuwse huis van John Walker. Hier verbleef de jonge kapitein Cook toen hij leerling was. Hij werd hier getraind voor het leven als zeeman. Je kunt onder andere z\u2019n oude kamer zien: de zolder waar hij met zestien andere leerlingen sliep. Ook kan je de originele brief van Cook naar Kapitein Hammond lezen waarin hij Hammond bedankt voor het lenen van een schip. Daarnaast is er een mooi schaalmodel te zien van het schip dat Cook op z\u2019n tweede ontdekkingsreis gebruikte.<\/p>\n
