Broker Remarks
Plymouth Pilot 18 for sale. Few traditionally shaped, inshore, west country fishing boats around today can boast a pedigree stretching back nearly 40 years. The Plymouth Pilot is one that can. The now very familiar shape of the Plymouth Pilot was conceived in the 1960s by two Westcountry craftsmen seeking to create the ‘perfect inshore fishing boat’. The shape evolved from the ‘old Teignmouth Pilot Launch, a wooden boat constructed in the late 1930’s. The Plymouth Pilot uses a displacement hull form, which is renowned for its sea worthiness, overall stability, reliability and minimal maintenance.
Plymouth Pilots are very economical to run, with their long keel and skeg combined with a traditional transom-mounted rudder to give incredible grip on the water. This allows the complete novice to become an expert in a very short time. Practical Boat Owner reported that “the Plymouth Pilot steers as if on rails with very little need for corrections”.
