Found on YouTube. Created by "Duluth Harbor Cam".

Located at the Superior Entry to the Duluth-Superior Harbor, the Wisconsin Point Cam is perfectly located to catch the large and small craft as they move through the Canal.

This camera is made possible with help from the Lake Superior Maritime Visitor Center, and the many viewers who so generously support these cameras.

Operational Notes:
Once the bow of the boat enters the canal, the camera signal will be lost until the boat is passed by the camera, then it will turn back on. This is due to the boats being taller than the pole that the antenna is located on.

Opinion New guidance for PBAs with trapdoors. Released 4.11.2020 by NZMPA

by New Zealand Maritime Pilot's Association - published on 6 November 2020

New guidance for PBAs with trapdoors. Released 4.11.2020 at NZMPA Conference in Dunedin, NZ. Distinct difference to suggestions in many other countries, is that we challenge operators who have the ladder suspended from the accommodation ladder (gangway) and not secured to the ship. SOLAS states that pilot ladder shall be secured to the ship, and securing strongpoints, shackles and ropes shall be as strong as the sideropes.
