pilot boat handoff from the carnival breeze September 17th 2019

The pilot boat Lesath brings the harbor pilot to the Allegro. It was windy and the sea was rough, the conditions where not extremely, but the boarding is not whitout risk.
This video is created 2 days after storm Ciara in the Port of Rotterdam. This was also the first day that the containerterminals where open after the storm.
Shipspotting Rotterdam,

Great video from Argentina. But a backpack is not recommended in combination with a life vest.
