In 1934 Ernest Hemingway bought this 38 foot playmate for fishing off the coast of Cuba. Built by the Wheeler Shipyard in New York City, she was painted "pirates black". Named Pilar, she carried 300 gallons of fuel and 155 gallons of water, and she was capable of carrying an additional 100 gallons in liquor. Her name ostensibly was taken from the older woman in "For the Bell Tolls".
