Mascotte was built in 1904 by Thomas Cox & Son in Newport. Thomas Cox was also her owner and a Bristol Channel Pilot. Mascotte is believed to of been the third largest Bristol Channel Pilot Cutter ever to of been built. She was twice as heavy and at 60ft she was 10ft longer than most others. She is the largest surviving Bristol Channel Pilot Cutter and was the largest to work out of Newport.
In 1994 she was fully restored by T Nielsen & Co in Gloucester under the ownership of Tony Winter. Under current ownership she has sailed extensively in the West Country and the West Coast of Scotland, as well as a season in Norway in 2019.
