With a beam of 15 ½ feet, Mainship’s Pilot 43 has a huge living space. She even provides a separate washer and a dryer and a tub. That’s far more living space than you’d ever expect.
High on my list of “want to haves” in my next boat is a back door that opens up wide to the outdoors.
Mainship’s Pilot 43 has a unique glass bulkhead between the salon and the aft cockpit. It creates what can only be described as a light, airy indoor/outdoor entertainment-ready cruiser. And that’s “Nice. Very Nice”

I should point out that most boats in this size do not have a hard aft bulkhead, or if they do, they’re often quite expensive options. A glass bulkhead of this sort might run around $18,500 on a typical 38 footer. I don’t know what it would cost on a 43 footer but it comes standard on the Pilot 43.
My thoughts … ”That’s what I call a Good Value.”
Jim Krueger of Mainship said to me that in Mainship’s point of view … “Owners are going to use the boat in the South, and in the North and in Europe: The hard bulkhead is standard … so when it’s cold – the heater will keep you comfortable, and when it’s hot out… the air conditioning will keep you comfortable. You should enjoy the benefits of the heat and the air …yet be able to walk right out to the cockpit and be outside.”
That’s what I call …”Understanding your Customer’s Needs and Meeting Them... Very Smart!”
