Pilgrim Belle is a small, paddle-driven excursion boat in Plymouth, Massachusetts. Built in 1993, the Belle is owned and operated by Captain John Boats, which owns multiple fishing boats in Plymouth. She shares a pier with the 1956-built replica ship Mayflower II.

Pilgrim Belle was built by River Head Marine[1] in 1993. She has a top speed of 10 knots and a fuel capacity of 500 gallons.[1] She was built to a design by naval architect Bill Preston, which resembles classic Mississippi River paddle-wheel steamboats.
