Overview
This Plymouth Pilot 18 is a traditional open motorboat which had been fitted out as a ‘Gentleman’s motor launch’. She is fitted with a forward cuddy with wheel steering and a forward throttle control to give some protection against the weather, while still maintaining tiller steering and a second throttle and gear shift at the stern. Her pulpit and deck fittings are high quality stainless-steel. She is a safe and economical displacement speed dayboat for 6 people, with modest running costs, marina and storage fees and ideal for day trips, fishing, picnics and family boating time in inshore waters.
This stunning package comes complete with road trailer and many, many extras – the perfect Plymouth Pilot Package!
