What did the pilgrims sail on before the Mayflower?

Answer 1

Before the Mayflower, the Pilgrims sailed on a ship called the Speedwell. The Speedwell was intended to transport them from England to the New World, but it encountered multiple leaks and was deemed unseaworthy. After several attempts to fix it, the Pilgrims ultimately abandoned the Speedwell and transferred to the Mayflower, which successfully carried them to America in 1620.
