The Mayflower II is expected to make a voyage from Mystic Seaport Museum on the south coast of Connecticut to Plymouth, Massachusetts this coming week.
The wooden sailing ship, launched in 1956, is a replica of the ship that took the Pilgrims from England to the New World in 1620. In the spring of 1957, the Mayflower II sailed from Plymouth, England to Plymouth, Massachusetts, where it has served as a living museum from spring to fall most of the years since.
