Presenting a magnificent off-shore vessel ordered by Mr. William Weinberg and meticulously crafted by George Moore, back in the glamorous 1960s. This exceptional yacht boasts a rare 6” thick hull, a testament to the unparalleled craftsmanship and luxury that defined an era. She was built to easily cruise across from California to Hawaii, because of Mr. Weinburg's business dealings in both areas. But also noted as the yacht leading the Del Rey Yacht Club's prestigious Regatta to Acapulco, many times. Also has taken students out on discovery trips to southern islands and now exploring the breathtaking coastlines of Canada and Alaska. This vessel embodies a legacy of adventure and elegance. . The Naval Architect – GEORGE W. MOORE – was given this project and the PIONEER build became a reality. George W. Moore’s background comes from reestablishing the Royal British Naval fleet after WWII. His extensive knowledge of how to build a ship, not a boat, was very important to Mr. Weinberg. This vessel was built for the purpose of crossing oceans, and it was a must to have an exceptional long range. But the living space was not to be neglected and had to have class according to Mr. Weinberg’s tastes. Finalizing a build location and sourcing out the best equipment and materials had to be first worked out. They built PIONEER in the Kettenburg yard located in San Diego, which included their skilled Kettenburg staff. Thus 3 years later, in 1967, “PIONEER” was launched from San Diego. PIONEER has left her mark where ever she has landed. Many trips back and forth to Hawaii. Years of travel up and down the Pacific Northwest. Hollywood used her in movies. Lead vessel for the famous Del Rey Yacht Club race. This vessel has history and a amazing story. Upgrades through the years have focused on keeping the gorgeous teak, dark walnut and mahogany finishing's in place. The engine room is so well designed that little has changed there. Engine rebuilds took place in 2012. Tank cleaning in 2022. Hull maintenance over the years. Hit the ignition and she still purrs along quietly when ever those engines start. PIONEER is a mechanically sound vessel but the layout is designed to give the owner the feeling of strength and comfort and an edge of sophistication. PIONEER is currently for sale and if you are looking for that special yacht, give me a call.
Hargrave Custom Yachts is pleased to assist you in the purchase of this vessel. This boat is centrally listed by Ignition Marine International Yacht Sales. It is offered as a convenience by this broker/dealer to its clients and is not intended to convey direct representation of a particular vessel

Pioneer's 12 fuel tanks are configured with 4 on each side and 4 down the middle. (numbered... S 1-4, C 1-4, and P 1-4). There are no fuel tanks below the starboard and port bilges which are on either side of the center fuel tanks (C-2 & C3) and inboard of the starboard and port fuel tanks.
Fuel tanks C 2 & C 3 are the main tanks (approximately 900-1200 US gallons each) for balanced storage when the fuel capacity drops to some point around 50%+/-. Both C 2 & C 3 have heavy duty large commercial gauges that are connected to fuel float sensors in each tank.
Tank C 2 fuel tank is connected (plumbed) to the 2 fuel circulating pumps and one manual fuel pump which when turned on operates continuously polishing the fuel, pumping the fuel through 2 large Luberfiner 750 filters. From the polisher, the fuel moves directly to the day tank, which feeds the running engines. A final cleaning takes place and the fuel passes through a set of DAHL filters, which each engine has in place. Excess fuel recirculates back to tank C 2 at a high volume flow.
The other 10 fuel tanks are much smaller (90-350 gallons) due to their location and the shape of the full displacement hull. They have no fuel level gauges, using a rather simple system to monitor the fuel, which is a 6"-8" chain ring that is placed over the individual tank's on/off brass suction valve after the tank's fuel has been transferred to C 2 (or to another tank). There are 2 larger fuel transfer pumps for high speed transferring of large quantities of diesel fuel from one tank to another. Also, the ability to transfer fuel to another vessel or storage tank.
In addition to the 2 large primary fuel filters, and medium size secondary fuel filters, one for each engine, each engine’s fuel pump has a small fuel filter which together add up to an outstanding foolproof system for safe operation of Pioneer in the worst sea conditions and in the event of taking on dirty fuel.
Water, sludge, and the diesel bug have never been an issue. The insulation from the 6" thick F/G hull with built in F/G fuel tanks has eliminated condensation problems and any chance of fuel tank issues.

Our company was founded by Jack Hargrave in 1957 in Palm Beach, Florida. In addition to being a Hall of Fame yacht designer best known for his work with builders like Amels, Burger, and Hatteras yachts, Jack Hargrave was also a highly successful yacht broker, as was his father before him. If you are not familiar with our company, Hargrave Yachts is one of the oldest and most respected yacht brokerage firms in the State of Florida. In addition to being a full-service yacht brokerage organization we maintain an in-house service department that our customers rate as 5-Star. When most yacht manufacturers put in their own in-house design and engineering departments we made the decision to begin building yachts in the 65’-200’ size range under the Hargrave brand name in 1997. As we tell all our brokerage clients, "If we can't find the perfect boat for you we'll build it!"
