Richard Hoborn was a shipbuilder of Kent, England during the 17th century.
The first reference to him in the "Declared Accounts" of payments to a mastmaker at Chatham Dockyard in Kent is in 1619, when he and William Wyborne were paid "for making with HM (His Majesty's) materials a new mast," etc. for the Defiance at a cost of £20/5s. As well as being a Master Mastmaker, Hoborn was churchwarden of St. Mary, a Chatham maritime parish in the 1660s.
