Description
'Pilgrim of Kimbridge', a Golden Hind 31, is a typical example of a Maurice Griffiths design. She benefits from a GRP hull which, combined with her teak superstructure and interior, has the warm ambience of a classic and traditional yacht. 'Pilgrim' has been sailed extensively over the last 30 years by the current owners, During these sea miles she has proved to be a sturdy offshore cruiser with sea kindly performance. Easily handled by a crew of two 'Pilgrim' benefits from a moderate draft which allows access to shallow coastal waters and anchorages. 'Pilgrim' has full ships registry and has been constantly maintained to a very high standard by her current owners who, after 3 decades have decided to reluctantly offer her for sale.'Pilgrim' is a proven and capable vessel in exceptional condition and worthy of an early inspection.As they say ‘They don’t build them like the used to’ but perhaps they should !Annual lift ashore June 2025 - fresh anti fouling and anodes. The electric switch board has been replaced together with a new steaming light and deck light fitted.

Brokers CommentsFrom stepping aboard Pilgrim and casting off to coming alongside it becomes quite obvious the current owners, who bought her in 1994, have both cherished and maintained her to a very high standard. However they have decided the time has come for them to Hang Up Ollies and Wellies for a more sedate life ashore. As a result the owners are leaving an enviable 2 page inventory plus numerous spares. There is even a full set of International Flags and 2 Stainless Steel folding Bikes.In fact just add food, your personal gear and Pilgrim is equipped to carry the new owner over the horizon or perhaps just a short sail to that secluded anchorage for a tranquil few days.
