Pilot boat Hanakahi inbound to Pier 19, Honolulu Harbor. 18 July 2020.
Another awesome photo:
A rare sight. Four of the Hawaii Pilots Association’s pilot boats were gathered together in Honolulu Harbor, which provided a great photo op.
There are many things in both our everyday and professional lives which we take for granted and never question the origins of, an example of this might be the IMPA recommended ‘pilot mark or pilot line’, which is sometimes seen on the side of vessels indicating where a vessels freeboard exceeds 9 metres.
