Beached Pilot Gigs
Hand PaintedCeramic Picture Tile 8"x12"

 

 

A hand painted ceramic wall plaque showing two Cornish Pilot Gigs, Wolf and Cadmus, both currently raced by Salcombe Rowing Club. Traditional 32ft clinker built with 6 single oared rowing positions pilot gigs can be seen in many coastal towns and villages throughout the South West. Originally used in Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly up until the 1920s for carrying pilots out to ships, for rescue work and the occasional smuggling, these fast gigs are now raced in regattas throughout the South West. 
A bright and beautifully painted tile suitable for anywhere in the home.
