We are pleased to announce that the New Zealand Maritime Pilot Association has launched its new website www.nzmpa.org.

As a part of the ISTLAB project the impact of external factors on pilots’ activities in a remote pilotage situation has been examined in Rauma.

Due to many incidents involving pilot ladders and man ropes in South Australian ports, and in effort to improve pilot safety, from 1 January 2022 Flinders Ports will require visiting vessels and their Masters to take additional precautions

Today is the beginning of IMPA´s 2020 Safety Campaign survey, and we would like to encourage you all to participate!
