The Pélican was a French warship from the late 17th century. Built in Bayonne, France, the original Pélican was launched in January 1693. A 500-ton ship fitted with 50 guns and commanded by Captain Pierre Le Moyne d'Iberville, she ran aground on the shores of Hudson Bay a few days after a heroic battle in 1697, badly damaged by the encounter and by a fierce storm. In five short months the ship's place in history had been assured, as the victor in the greatest naval battle in the history of New France.

- Le Pélican est un navire de guerre français de 3e rang de la fin du XVIIe siècle. Construit à Bayonne, par le charpentier Félix Arnaud, le Pélican est lancé en 1693. Le navire de 500 tonnes est équipé de 50 (puis 44) canons et sert pendant la guerre de la Ligue d'Augsbourg. Le Pélican a une vie courte mais glorieuse : il est perdu en 1697 dans la baie d'Hudson après un combat héroïque sous les ordres de Pierre Le Moyne d'Iberville contre trois vaisseaux anglais et une tempête.
