To better bundle all articles and messages about Marine / Maritime Pilots I would like to suggest the Hashtag #MARINEPILOTS. We can use it well here on LinkedIn, but also for other social media like Twitter.

IMPA has published examples of best practice together with a letter from Capt. Simon Pelletier, President of IMPA.
