All aboard!When visiting the museum with your Massachusetts car rental, you will learn about the history of the ship and its people. The ship left Plymouth on September 6, 1620. The trip was a long and hard one. There was disease onboard and a sever winter storm sent the ship off course, which was originally destined for the Hudson River and the settlement of Jamestown. On March 21, 1621, surviving passengers went onshore, and on April 5, the vessel returned to England. Since the settlers were not able to reach their intended destination, they did not have permission to establish a colony where they actually ended up. In order to establish a new order, they signed the Mayflower Compact at the tip of Cape Cod. Over the winter, there was a serious outbreak of disease on the ship, and only 53 of the original 102 passengers on board survived. |
