The number of videos demonstrating poor pilot launch risk management procedures is amazing.
For example;
Pilot not wearing a self inflating (hydrostatic release) life jacket

No pilot tethering system to pilot vessel sail'' track using a harness fitted to the 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

Article Pilot Transfer Arrangements and new Regulations

by Captain Jesus Señeriz Lopez - published on 4 February 2020

As we all know there is a new regulation established since July 2012, this new regulation refers to pilot transfer arrangements. There are other yearly safety campaigns such as IMPA that include SOLAS V.23 and IMO Resolution A 1045 and Resolution A.1108(29). Unfortunately, in this annual overview there were some accidents reported that could have been avoided.
