Best Answer

The Speedwell, which was supposed to be the sister ship to the Mayflower, was sold because a problem with leakage was causing the ship to take on water. The ship was repaired by the new owners and made several successful voyages to the Colonies and back. There is no mention of the ship after its last voyage in 1751.
