We are pleased to announce that the New Zealand Maritime Pilot Association has launched its new website www.nzmpa.org.

From best practice guides to The New Zealand Pilot magazine, visitors can access a wealth of information that promotes safety and quality pilotage. In addition, the website provides links to the Australasian Marine Pilots Institute (AMPI) and IMPA resources, making it a central hub for all maritime needs.

As an online magazine that keeps its readers informed and up to date, we applaud the efforts of the New Zealand Maritime Pilot Association in establishing their new website. We believe the website will be an invaluable resource for all those involved in the industry and we encourage our readers to visit the site and explore all it has to offer.

In a world where safety and excellence are paramount, it is reassuring to know that organisations like the New Zealand Maritime Pilot Association are working tirelessly to promote these values. We wish the Association well in its endeavours.
