Granma (yacht)

Granma is a 62-foot yacht famous for its historical significance in the Cuban Revolution. In 1956, it was used by Fidel Castro and a small group of revolutionaries to sail from Mexico to Cuba to launch an armed revolt against the Cuban government of Fulgencio Batista. The journey marked the beginning of a movement that ultimately led to Castro's rise to power. Granma is not only a symbol of the revolution but also serves as a national monument in Cuba, embodying the spirit of resistance and the quest for change in the country's history.
