	Civilization.ca - Media - Caboto & the Italian Navigators on their Journey to the Americas
		After undertaking trading voyages to the eastern Mediterranean, as well as speculating in real estate, his financial affairs took a turn for the worse by 1488, forcing him to flee the city to avoid pressure from his creditors and to seek asylum in Spain at the beginning of the 1490s.
		His conviction and powers of persuasion won from Henry VII the right to claim any lands he discovered in the King's name, to occupy them as a royal vassal, and to bring back the wealth he found, provided a fifth was reserved for the King.
		Under these favourable terms, Caboto set sail on his epic-making voyage of exploration to discover the North-West passage on the Matthew, a square-rigged ship of fifty tons carrying a crew of eighteen, from the port of Bristol, England early in May 1497.
