Delaware River Pilot Boat Overfalls Working the Delaware River - Paulsboro, NJ - March 18, 2025

🚤 Safety at sea starts with preparation. Our Marine Operations team recently carried out a live Man Overboard (MOB) drill using the new recovery platform on our pilot boat, Trais Leopard. Regular training exercises help ensure our equipment, procedures and crews are ready to respond effectively in an emergency. These drills are a vital part of maintaining the highest standards of marine safety and operational readiness. ⚓ Prepared. Practised. Ready to respond. #MarineSafety #ManOverboard...

Over the course of 4 days this August, I was afforded the opportunity and privilege of riding with the Savannah Bar Pilots for an article I was writing for a major maritime magazine. The pilots are given the responsibility of boarding a vessel in the Atlantic Ocean and safely navigating the vessel up the Tybee Road 9 (a name for the shipping lane that leads into the Savannah River), into the Savannah River, and into the Port of Savannah. The same is done in reverse when a ship is outbound...

According to "Buchan Observer": Peterhead Port Authority has introduced remote pilotage for selected vessels entering the harbour as part of a package of measures designed to reduce the risk of staff and users contracting the Covid-19 virus.

As the world struggles with the Covid-19 virus, the maritime world is being hit hard, not only economically, but also socially and operationally. Iin shipping there are no borders.
