A collection of action from the St Johns Bar Pilot Association In the early 1800′s as the commercial ports along the St Johns River began to develop, a select group of brave and skilled seafarers would row to sea to meet arriving cargo sailing ships.

On the other hand, there is a dearth of literature on STS operation. As a result, this work has a significant input on the current literature.
