2005 Holby Pilot 24

NORTH END has been donated to a marine charity and is available as a 3-year lease with purchase option at zero percent interest.

“NORTH END” is a fast and fun, Downeast pocket yacht. Designed by Mark Ellis and built by Holby Marine in Bristol RI. Pretty from every angle and functional for all intended purposes. Great opportunity to own a classic and manageable boat that turns heads in any harbor. 

Highlights Include:

• Bowthruster

• 20kn cruise, 30kn top end; Modified-V hull provides a dry & stable ride 

Currently on the hard in Bristol RI, showings by appointment. 

Holby’s foray into fiberglass production began in the 2000s with the popular Pilot 20’ and continues with her larger sister the 24’. Mark Ellis designed both and it is clear he used the classic lobster boat as a starting point. Crisp lines and a gentle tumble home over a modified V-bottom with wide chines make the 24’ stable and quick to plane.

Hull is land laminated composite cored FRP with the resin-infused via SCRIMP. Deck and cockpit are composite cored hand laminated FRP SCRIMP resin infused. Solid FRP modified V keel. Molded non-skid decking and toe rail sections, vinyl rub rail runs the length of the hull and transom. Anodized aluminum windshield, aluminum radar arch, and an S/S tubed bow rail. Teak slatted swim platform on S/S brackets.
