The storm produced some pretty big waves at the entrance to Cork Harbour, and strong winds during the height of the storm. We managed to capture some cool footage from Roches PT lighthouse.

Here's a nice little video of sea trials during the recent unseasonal storm we had last month, which produced some pretty rough conditions at the entrance to Cork Harbour. We managed to capture some nice footage of the Barracuda and Thunder Child II on the day.

The IMPA has published on 30th June 2020 a letter about crew exchange in times of corona. Read the letter here:

Most pilot embarkations and disembarkations around the world, are still carried out using a traditional pilot ladder, consisting of wooden steps supported and secured by side ropes.

The pilot boat in Hvasser is going to pick up a pilot from a tank ship.

The IMPA safety campaign will be running from 1st to 15th October 2021.
