16m Pilot Boat Stainsby - Launching

It will replace the "Coatham" pilot vessel which will now find a new home at the Port of Tyne after racking up 800,000 miles servicing the River Tees over a 20-year period.

Time lapse video of the launching of our latest 16m Pilot Boat which now features a resiliently mounted superstructure which lowers noise levels and improves crew comfort.

The investment in the vessels to work on the busy waterways will see the arrival next year of the next generation of pilot boats built by Holyhead Marine.
