Vessel is of full fiberglass construction with full keel for stability and prop/rudder protection for shallow water cruising. A deep keel protects the prop/rudder and provides stability.  Unlike electric boats, she is well suited for offshore cruising and/or fishing.

Hi Joe,

We met in Cape May looking at a Pilot there more than a year ago.  I'm still looking around, and I wondered whether the folks who bought your lovely Pilot might be looking to sell her.  If you have any info I would much appreciate it.

Thanks.
