Taking the plunge

Shipwright Chris Sanders continues the construction of the beakhead of the Mayflower II on Friday, July 19, 2019, at Mystic Seaport Museum's H.B. duPont Preservation Shipyard. The beak head is the protruding part of the foremost section of a sailing ship. It was fitted on sailing vessels from the 16th to the 18th centuries and served as a working platform by sailors working the sails of the bowsprit, the forward-pointing mast that carries the spritsails. The ship, built in 1956, is a replica of the vessel that brought the Pilgrims to the New World in 1620 and was built in England as a gift to the United States in thanks for support during and after World War II. The ship is nearing the end of a 30-month restoration in Mystic in preparation to sail again on the 400th anniversary of the Pilgrims' voyage. A launching ceremony has been scheduled for Sept. 7. Next week, the steel and fabric structure that has enclosed the ship since the spring of 2017 will be removed. (Sean D. Elliot/The Day)
