Columbia Rediviva (commonly known asColumbia) was a privately owned Americanship under the command, first, ofJohn Kendrick, and laterCaptain Robert Gray, best known for being the first American vessel to circumnavigate the globe, and her expedition to thePacific Northwest for themaritime fur trade. "Rediviva" (Latin "revived") was added to her name upon a rebuilding in 1787. SinceColumbia was privately owned, she did not carry the prefix designation "USS".
Simeon Woodruff, under the command of Kendrick, served as first mate from September to November 1787. A former gunner's mate during the final voyage of Captain James Cook, R.N., was the only man in the entire Columbia Expedition leaving Boston on the first voyage to have been to the Pacific.[3]

John Kendrick Jr, served as an officer under the command of his father, John Kendrick, during the first voyage. In 1789 at Nootka Sound left to join theSpanish Navy.[5][6][7]
John Boit was fifth officer ofColumbia on its second voyage from 1790 to 1793; he was fifteen years old on the day of its departure. His log of the expedition is the only complete account of the second voyage ofColumbia, and only one of two written accounts of the first European Americans to locate what they would call the Columbia River on May 12, 1792.[8]
In 1958, a full-scale replica of the ship opened as an attraction, named "Sailing ShipColumbia", inFrontierland atDisneyland, and the three-masted vessel continues to ply theRivers of America there most days of the year. Contained within the hull is "Below Decks", which is an exhibit of nautical artifacts from the 18th Century that passengers can visit while on board. The ship was designed byWalt Disney Imagineering with direction from AdmiralJoe Fowler and marine expert Ray Wallace.[9]
