Question

Question 9 Unsaved

Answer 1

The correct answer is B) The weather was rough and the seas almost crushed the boats. When the pilgrims set sail to the New World in 1620, they had to deal with harsh weather conditions that put the ship's resistance to test (At the trip's first departure point, there were two boats and one of them - The Speedwell - didn't made it out Europe), took a toll on the crew and passengers (many of them didn't survive the 65 days-long journey), and it also derailed them from their original course (their destination was the established colony of Virginia instead of Cape Cod) by more than 500 miles.
