The Atlantic crossing took two months, but the Pilgrims arrived at Cape Cod in November and didn't start building any shelter at Plymouth until mid-December. Due to the lack of houses on land, most of the Pilgrims stayed on the Mayflower through the winter. They were afflicted with malnutrition, scurvy, pneumonia and intestinal problems that caused dehydration. Of the 102 passengers who made it to Cape Cod, 50 died during the winter of 1620.
