Marine Pilot - Esperance

A more unique angle regarding freighter departures; I was able to film the routine disembarking of one of our local ship captains and officers after piloting Solina out of the harbor. This is a required procedure, as per US Maritime Laws, all international freighters must be piloted in and out of a US harbor by a US Captain. Here we have out local pilot vessel Sea Bear running up alongside the Solina to allow the two officers to depart the freighter before she heads out across Lake Superior

The Southern Ports Authority of Western Australia recently welcomed a new pilot boat into service.
Built by Hart Marine of Victoria, the boat has been named Wardan after the sea water off Wardandi Country, where it will also primarily operate.

Experiences from Australia: No two days are the same for a marine pilot in a busy port such as Esperance, but Mr MacAdie wouldn’t have it any other way.

Papua New Guinea Ports Corporation in partnership with the Australian Government had christened a K5million new customized Pilot boat called MV Paga on Tuesday November 1st. The launching of another Pilot boat was stated as the culmination of the hard work put together by the Australian High Commission, the Australian Infrastructure Financing Facility for the Pacific, and PNG Ports Corporation. #pngnews #looppng #tvwannews #digiceltv #digicel #bettertogether LATEST NEWS: http://www.looppng....

The term pilot is defined as, “a person who is qualified and usually licensed to conduct a ship into and out of a port or in specified waters.” The Merchant Shipping Act 1894 states that, “a pilot is any person not belonging to a ship who has the conduct thereof.”
