Den Røde Løve[Note 1] was a 70-ton ship of the Dano-Norwegian navy. It served during the early 17th century, when it was recorded as carrying 6 guns.[1]
The name is Danish for "The Red Lion"; it was also known as Løven ("the Lion").[1]
The ship was considered slow and ill-equipped for sailing close to the wind. It was considered an older ship on a naval list from 1611.[1]
^Four ships are listed in the Danish Naval Museum Skibregister with the name Røde Løve - this one from 1596 and later ones from 1611, 1622 and 1666 - but without further details
