• Price:
• £9.95

A beautifully drawn plan of this classic boat. The pilot gig is recognised as one of the first shore-based lifeboats that went to vessels in distress, with recorded rescues going back as far as the 17th century. The original purpose was as a general work boat, and was used for taking 'pilots' out to incoming vessels arriving at the Scilly Isles. 23" x 15"
