Harwich Mayflower Project
The Harwich Mayflower Project is based in Harwich, in the United Kingdom. It is a community project of which the main goal is to construct a full-scale, sea-worthy replica of the famous Mayflower ship which transported a hundred pilgrims from the UK to Cape Cod in America in 1620. The Project also provides training in ship building and other skills.
==History==
The formation of the Project was inspired by a visit to the town from a replica of the HMS Endeavour, the ship commanded by Captain Cook. The visit created a lot of interest within the town, and a small group of locals came together with the intention of building on this interest. As a result of a meeting in 2009, they decided to form a project for Harwich to build its own replica ship; the Mayflower was the obvious choice due to its Harwich connections (Christopher Jones, the ship's master, was born and raised there). The first designs of the ship were unveiled in April 2009. By 2010 the Project had achieved charitable status, and before the year was through the Project had effectively commenced.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.harwichmayflower.com/about/ )〕 The Project received a major boost in the latter half of 2010 with an official endorsement by Richard Branson,〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.harwichmayflower.com/ )〕 the billionaire founder of Virgin Group.
