The Mayflower made the crossing all alone in 1620 with 102 passengers and 30 crew members. It took 66 days to get across from England. Now people fly over in 6 hours.

Here is info on Mayflower 2. This replica made a crossing in 1957. It now resides in Plymouth, Mass. not far from the Plymouth Rock.
