A court sentenced a captain to a total of 30 months imprisonment: It had been proven beyond doubt that the side ropes had been manipulated to make a ship inspection more difficult or to prevent it.

The Zenith 54 Pilot Boat leads the way in performance and reliability. Designed for maximum efficiency and operator comfort, this 16m vessel reaches speeds over 30 knots, making it ideal for pilot transfers, crew transport, and ship assistance even in the most demanding conditions.
Crafted with a durable aluminium hull and wheelhouse, the design can be fully tailored to meet the specific operational needs of each client. We work closely with every end user, ensuring each vessel is designed...

The Maritime Innovation Lab serves as a co-creation platform where projects focus on next generation port operations such as vessel traffic management, remote pilotage, and just-in-time port services coordination, as well as maritime autonomous surface ships (MASS) are experimented. In addition, the MIL will also house the maritime data hub to support industry digitalisation efforts and data sharing. Beyond MIL, the MPA Living Lab also supports physical test-beds at sea.
