Taking on a harbor pilot - The Beagle Channel - Argentina

What do you think about this unusual manoeuvre here?

Video by Maksym Kunchev. Thank you!

This is a video of the cruise ship pilot boat that picks up the pilot once he has navigated the ship out of the port. This is a requirement of all cruise ships coming into and leaving out of ports. We also noticed them at the Bahamas. I was able to capture this one on my last cruise leaving out of Port Canaveral... watch as the pilot jumps from the cruise ship to the pilot boat while both are moving! :)
