James Cook travelled on his ship called the Endeavour.
James Cook's ship in 1770 (before he was a captain) was the Endeavour.This was the ship in which he sailed to the South Pacific, circumnavigated New Zealand and charted the east coast of Australia.
James Cook was a sea explorer, so he travelled by ship.
There was no assigned artist. James Cook and the scientists who travelled with him were all expected to make notes and sketch scenery, animals and plants of interest. So Cook himself made many drawings, as did his botanists, Joseph Banks and the Swedish and Finnish botanists Daniel Solander and Dr Herman Spöring.
