SafePilot CAT I

by Trelleborg Marine Systems Denmark A/S - 38 -

Show comment section |

The CAT I is a stand-alone high accuracy GPS receiver with the capability of GPS/GLONASS and available SBAS systems such as EGNOS, WAAS, MSAS, and GAGAN

CAT I is an add-on option to CAT ROT for use in operations that demand more accurate positioning than what is provided by the ship’s own positioning through the AIS pilot plug. The use of CAT I further improves the accuracy of the speed measurements of own vessel.

The CAT ROT / CAT I solution is thus independent of the ship’s positioning and speed sources. The only data still provided by the vessel’s pilot plug is heading data and AIS targets, which is less sensitive data as the pilot can easily validate the quality.

Video Pilot Boat Alongside Scarlet Lady Cruise Ship

published on 18 August 2021

From our deck 12 cabin balcony, some footage of the pilot boat coming alongside Virgin Voyages' cruise ship Scarlet Lady in the Solent between Portsmouth and the Isle of Wight. If you're expecting action and excitement then brace yourself for not quite that at all, but it is fairly impressive how close the pilot boat gets to the larger vessel, bouncing around on the waves. I did want to see the pilot leap from the ship to the boat but in truth got tired of waiting so if that's the bit...
