What did the pilgrims ships look like?

The Pilgrims' ships, primarily the Mayflower, were small, sturdy vessels known as cargo ships or "trading ships." The Mayflower was about 90 feet long, with a broad beam and a high stern, designed to carry goods across the Atlantic. It had a square rig with three masts, allowing it to navigate the open sea, and was equipped with a cargo hold for supplies and personal belongings of the Pilgrims. The ship's design prioritized durability over speed, essential for the perilous transatlantic journey.
