Boat builder Metal Shark has delivered a 55’ x 17’ welded aluminum pilot boat to the Pascagoula Bar Pilots Association in Mississippi.

The investment in the vessels to work on the busy waterways will see the arrival next year of the next generation of pilot boats built by Holyhead Marine.

The Port of Townsville has welcomed the newest addition to its fleet of pilot boats with the arrival of the newly built MANTARAY. The $3.3 million, custom-built vessel utilises high-tech equipment and design to maximise safety and efficiency for pilot transfers.

Everytime a cruiseship leaves a port a pilot from the port gets the ship out to sea then the pilot jumps off and thr ship Captain takes over. #susieandreginaadventures #cruiseline #travel #royalcaribbean #cruising #cruiseship #bonusqueens #adventureoftheseas #pilot #pilotboat #sealife #traveling #travelvlog #travelvloggers #cruiselife #cruiser #cruiseaddict #cruisevlog #cruiseTips #firstTimeCruiser #cruiseVacation #oceanadventure #oceanadventures #cruiseShipExcursions #oceanlife #islandlife
