Pilot Boat MV Paga Launched at PNG Ports

Vlaanderen is één van de drukste scheepvaartregio’s ter wereld. Loodsen assisteren schepen bij het aanlopen en verlaten van de havens in Vlaanderen.

Although the seas weren’t very big, it was blowing hard at the time with gusts of over 50kts recorded at Roches PT lighthouse as we passed.

The new pilot boat "Buran" has been delivered to Poseidon Sea Pilots of Queensland, Australia.
