Three reconstructed ships are docked at the landing in Jamestown. The largest is well over 100 feet long and the high mast is about 100 feet high.
These were the three ships that landed in sailed from England in Dec 1606 and landed in what became Jamestown in May 1607 (they first sailed to the West Indies to get water and food before going north).
As one might imagine, the living quarters are not great. They carried about 100 men (50 died within a year).
