Help keep our 1895 Victorian sailing trawler at sea
Please help keep Pilgrim sailing!
It costs us over £200,000 a year for the Members and volunteers of the Pilgrim Heritage Sailing Foundation to keep Pilgrim conserved, maintained and operational.
Pilgrim is the oldest surviving Victorian fishing trawler that was built and rigged in Brixham. Since her restoration Pilgrim has sailed hard for twelve years, taking thousands of guests along the Devon and Cornwall coasts and further afield to the Solent, the Isles of Scilly, France and the Channel Islands. We and our guests have loved seeing her at sea bringing appreciation of her fishing heritage and the traditional ways of sailing these incredible vessels.
We need your help to keep Pilgrim sailing and conserved for future generations to enjoy in the heart of Brixham where we was built and launched in 1895.
Pilgrim is desperate for a new suite of sails and there are other essential maintenance projects we need to undertake. Please donate to help us get new sails and keep her operational. It will cost us £50,000 to replace just the sails and we need your help to raise the money.
