Description

Based on the traditional Cornish Pilot Gig this updated version has had it's beam increased from the usual 5' (1.525m) to 6'9" (2.05m) to accommodate an inboard diesel engine and a bigger rig. These gigs were used for general service, salvage and piloting and sometimes, for fishing. With it's engine, rig and centreplate she will be a very useful multi-purpose craft still able to move well under oar.

She can be built without the engine or the centreplate if you want to use her for other purposes. She is half decked but could be built completely open or even take a small cabin.

Construction is modern Cedar strip overlaid with Khaya veneer with several of the moulds being used as permanent frames and bulkheads.
