Marine Pilot (Port of Cork)

The Pacific Pilotage Authority of Canada (PPA) has taken delivery of a new aluminium pilot boat from Ocean Pacific Marine of Vancouver Island, British Columbia.

This Pilot Advisory Note (PAN) advises AMSA-licensed coastal pilots and pilotage providers about the existence of counterfeit pilot ladders and associated certification.

Another accident was reported on YouTube on Feb. 3rd 2020 by akif pradias.
"This video shown how's hwalein pilot got accident while boarding the vessel, its teach us to be more carefully during pilot transfer..."

This webinar was the first of its webinar by MTIs for their students and faculty to highlight the pilot ladder safety as important element of Pilot Transfer arrangement.

From guiding massive vessels through narrow channels to braving rough seas, Captain Fawaz and Captain Ali exemplify dedication, skill, and a deep love for the ocean.

Notice by Marine-Pilots.com:
This was one of the rare videos that want to show how to prepare a pilot ladder properly and safely for the pilot and according to all rules. But this video was not ok too.
For this reason we have removed the video.
If you have better videos that are suitable for learning, please send us the links or videos. We will publish them here. Thanks a lot.

Suggestion of Pilot Transfer Point @ stern of the Pilot Boat. By Khan

Ahmed is an ideas man. For example, during the COVID-19 pandemic, he came up with a way to protect pilots from infection by driving incoming ships remotely, allowing his team to virtually board foreign ships rather than encounter new people in person, which would have put his colleagues at risk.
