That’s both literally and figuratively – because as the country’s most strategically situated intermodal hub, CentrePort is at the heart of all road, rail, domestic and international shipping networks.

CentrePort is a major part of New Zealand’s supply chain, providing critical infrastructure and transport solutions to the regional and national economy.  If you are after a rewarding career within an interesting environment where exciting changes unfold, look no further.  We’re developing and regenerating CentrePort – and you get to be part of it!  If you’re an experienced Pilot with a minimum of five years pilotage experience and preferably ASD tug experience, we’re keen to get you on board.

Video Is this a dangerous manoeuvre in a Pilot Boat?

published on 26 October 2020

Editors note: A film of a pilot boat has just been published on YouTube with the title "How Dangerous being in a Pilot Boat..." on YouTube. I'm not sure if this really shows a dangerous maneuver, maybe the experts can comment on it here.
But in principle it is problematic to approach the ship in such a small Pilot Boat in the wake from astern and cross the waves there. I remember an accident from Finland in December 2017 where the boat capsized and people died. Is this situation shown here...

Het Nederlands Loodswezen BV is een organisatie die de aangesloten registerloodsen de middelen verschaft om hun werk uit te oefenen. Zo int het Loodswezen de loodsgelden en zorgt de organisatie voor het transport van en naar zeeschepen. We zien hier een prachtig staaltje inparkeren door de Pioneer in de speciaal daarvoor aangelegde loodsbotenhaven in Vlissingen; naast het Keizersbolwerk. Klaar om de Westerschelde weer op te varen.
