The San Juan pilot boat coming next to our ship.

Watching Bar Pilots navigate the Columbia River in Astoria, OR and learning some history about the old pilot boat “Peacock”. Beautiful sunny day on the river with Sea lions, Gulls, ducks and more. Learn why it’s absolutely necessary for the bar pilots to help the ships get through one of the most treacherous parts of the Columbia.

Today a look at a special vessel that is commonly seen on the Astoria waterfront: the pilot boat that takes pilots to and from passing ships.

Awesome drone video from Latvia

Another great education video by Knud Benedict (Germany): Practical experiments for getting useful data for planning.

Who is a pilot and how do I find information about this great job on the Internet?
