Pilot not wearing a self inflating (hydrostatic release) life jacket

No deckhand attendance to the P/V point of transfer
No deckhand testing of security of pilot land before the pilot commences embarkation/disembarkation
The fact that pilot organisations post these videos on your new site appears to indicate they have no awareness of modern WH&S requirements and systems
