NRW pilot boat offshore Mooloolaba

According to a report today by www.MaritimeBulletin.net a mooring boat was rammed from a container ship and sunk.

The Australian company Hart Marine specialises in building pilot and patrol boats of the highest quality.This is not surprising, as the owner's father, Mal Hart, was a harbour master and therefore very familiar with the requirements of a pilot boat.

A portrait honouring the "vital role" women play in the maritime industry has been unveiled.

With approval from the Danish Emergency Management Agency, DanPilot and Danelec are now initiating a test program for remote pilotage – the first of its kind in the world.

In this video we are trying to show how a ship enters into Mombasa port through a canal and the procedure of berthing.

Shortly after 5 a.m. local time the vessel “Else” had a collision in the Kiel-Holtenau lock to the Kiel Canal.
The "Else" subject to pilotage passed the pilot's boarding position without taking a sea pilot on board and collided from the outside into the closed gate of the new north lock. The bow bored into the metal construction and the ship was stuck for about six hours.
