Cabot's Voyage of 1497: Newfoundland and Labrador Heritage Theories and opinions conflict about the 1497 voyage. John Cabot's Voyage of 1497 There is very little precise contemporary information about the 1497 voyage. If Cabot kept a log, or made maps of his journey, they have disappeared. What we have as evidence is scanty: a few maps from the first part of the 16th century which appear to contain information obtained from Cabot, and some letters from non-participants reporting second-hand on what had occurred. As a result, there are many conflicting theories and opinions about what actually happened.
