Three Cornish pilot gigs: Rebel, Black Ven and Tempest

These long, elegant racing-class boats are built for speed. To ensure they meet the specifications laid down by the Cornish Pilot Gig Association, they are measured three times during construction. All the modern pilot gigs are replicas of Boat 1 dating from 1838, Treffry.
