14,4 m Pilot Boat, Nekton

Pilot Boat build by Abeking & Rasmussen, Germany.

Cadets get a wide variety of experiences at Great Lakes Maritime Academy. Glad this was captured to show the viewer what it is like boarding a vessel from a pilot boat.

How to get information for wind & current limits to be potentially encountered by thrusters – or current? - this will be described in this movie:
- Measure Drift speed, due to beam wind with no propulsion;
- Measure drift speed using full thrusters
- Estimate wind & current limits to be potentially encountered by thrusters – or current...
- Finally there is a simple formula as Rule of Thumb: the transverse drift speed is about 7-8% of wind speed!

A stunning view while docking manuerve by drone view, nowadays in some port in some countries, the pilot and port authorities uses the drone to monitor the entire operation.
