Along the Waterfront
This is a test for an upcoming blog about what is going on at the mayflower II site on the waterfront. I am the manager of the maritime artisans department at Plimoth Plantation and I oversee the repair/restoration of our reproduction ship as well as sailing activities connected with our 17th century vessels. I will be posting content about ongoing restoration efforts on the ship, new programming and events of interest for locals and visitors alike. enjoy and please let me know how you like the blog.

I like to go to the waterfront to see the tourists. Eat Ice cream. We live close by and it is a treat. Who lives where everybody wants to come. The waterfront offers so much. Check it out.

I was at the reception with my father in 1957 for Alan Villiers and thw crew when they arrived in Plymouth after the voyage. My father, Bartlett Bradley, was vice-president of Plymouth Cordage who had supplied the ship with the rope they needed. Who will be doing this now? Brenda Bradley

Brenda,
While the Cordage Company has been closed for some time, we are still able to get hemp line from a rope distributor in New Bedford. R& W Rope Warehouse can supply the smallest tarred marline to the largeest, (2 1/2"+ hemp rope.)
