Moored in the inner bay with engines warm, this 13m pilot boat is ready for sea. Lines slip away off the berth, the skyline slides past her mast, and out through the harbour mouth she opens up. Built by Dookyu Crown, for the water ahead. Looking for a pilot boat or a custom work boat for your waters? Send us a message.
