Jacobsen Pilot Service, the Port's pilot service since 1924, has acquired a new state-of-the-art pilot boat, The Orion. Learn all about The Orion in this video.
This is a video I had captured off U.S Coast from a merchant vessel as the Pilot was transferred from our Ship to Shore via Helicopter.
All recordings were done using N8 (unbelievable clarity!)
