HISTORY OF THE BOAT ENGLISH CARRIER MAYFLOWER
Discover the Mayflower, wooden model of this freighter ship of century XVII. This ship transported 102 English separatists – now known as the Pilgrim Fathers – from Plymouth to the New World, making this journey an iconic one within early American history.
The Mayflower was a typical English merchant ship from the early 17th century. After two failed attempts to return to port for repairs, the famous voyage began on 6 September arriving at the coast of Newfoundland in November. It would not be until well into the winter when they managed to reach New England.
On its return the Mayflower would be destroyed, being constructed almost three centuries later a replica that can be visited like boat museum in the port of Plymouth.
