Pilot boats & ship boarding in rough weather
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 7 сен 2024
- We we’re out on sea trials with the two newly launched Interceptor 48 pilot boats when the Port of Cork pilot boat ‘Failte’ passed by to undertake a pilot transfer from an outbound ship. It was a nice opportunity to capture some cool video of the action as the boats ran alongside before the ship turned to create a lee for the pilot to disembark. Although the seas weren’t very big, it was blowing hard at the time with gusts of over 50kts recorded at Roches PT lighthouse as we passed.

hats of to those harbour pilots for sure... great footage too folks
Entrance to Cork Harbour doesn't take any prisoners 🤣 You need some serious experience and skill to do this job 👏👏
BIG RESPECT
Having worked for the Humber pilot service 72/73 I can relate to boarding and taking off pilots in atrocious weather,more so when it was wind over tide at the mouth of the river.Once or twice pilots had to go with the ship because it was unsafe to go alongside,no helicopters in those days.Roly 🇬🇧
I work in Rotterdam but never been a captain, pilot or anything but have been a shipping agent as in the agent for the companies that own the vessels. Every port of call Id go on board asap, but most of the time just after berthing. Occasionally though, I'd be on a pilot one too to board earlier. Thankfully the times it was windy, she was already sailing behind a dam breaking the waves.
But when I climbed those ladders, my sick mind always had to think about:: If i would fall or let go, I would be sucked so much under it, and those speeds of the vessel still are so fast compared to even thinking about swimming to catch up and be rescued ) NL

Folks, i´m so happy to be lying on the couch. Greetings from Germany : - )

Real talk🙏💯
Incredible footage again. Gratefull that you keep sharing these awesome clips with us. Thank you so much Frank and the team!
Great work again, thank you!
This notification came through just as I was walking in to work this morning. I've been waiting all day to get home to watch it on the big screen. Frank's boats are always great to see in action and his videos never let me down. Thanks Frank, keep 'em coming mate. 🍺🍺🍺🍺
I love watching the pilot and pilot boat at work when I need something to make me feel better I watch these videos I admire these men
My favourite channel. Great content 👍
The Pilots are amazing. The skill set, piloting great ships in and out of port, and getting on and off the ship! In rough weather what they accomplish is breathtaking. I don't know what they get paid but they earn every penny. Love and respect from pdx. 🌹
About 200-400k per year
Gran trabajo de los capitanes de lanchas pilotos
Hey Frank ! Your vids are always to short :) Nice work again :)
Amazing videos sir,,, wacthing in roxas City capiz Philippines
It was about time the ship gave the pilot boat some Lee.
That looks absolutely terrifying!
Wow very nice and beautiful
I got seasick just watching this. I can't imagine having to that in rough or cold weather
Love videos
Just amazing 😮
May God bless you all brave men. Keep you safely. RESPECT. 😮❤
Great views, love it.
Nice finish with the Lighthouse.
Pilots definitely have balls of steel. I once saw a video of Hamble marine police avoiding bordering a trawler as it was too rough. Like a millpond compared to the conditions pilots operate in!
And ovaries of steel! Women are also pilots!
Safety and firsh captain... 👍
Awesome 👏
Los mejores…👏👏👏🤘😘
당신들이 진정한 도선사들이다.

지금 영상 수준에 날씨면
도선은 포기해야 한다.
Badassssss why are there 2 Pilot boats?
In case of emergency ma'am so there's another pilot boat standing by to assist her for example like this, A heavy weather encounter.. In my opinion, I hope I answer your question somehow..
@@frencedaveocbena1150 Thank you
@@frencedaveocbena1150 Actually, just one pilot boat, other two are on sea trials. ( see description)
Wonderful video!
Interceptor 48
Nice ladies
Use those based at Tanger Med
Bugger that job!
There is maximum of 10% of survival rate if you miss the deck or are swiped off the ladders. In 5 seconds you are sucked into propeller with utmost certainty. Especially in a ship where back if lifted like that and propeller(s) is almost surface piercing.
Complimenti 😊
It's an extremely attendance which caused a deadly accidents for pilots at Port Said north entrance of Suez Canal area .
Saudações aqui do Brazil, imagens fantásticas 👍
leadership doesn't comes from bigger physical strength it comes from bigger heart.
People do support me at my back to move forward to lead myself with my voice.
Anybody cares to explain to me, why can't the bigger ship just stop and wait for the pilot to board or disembark safely without so much risks?
Nice video
Those pilot boats look amazing. We currently use our tugboat for pilot shuttles but we were about to get some actual pilot boats I was excited to run but the deal fell through :(
Cool 😎
Very2 danger ,good jobs sir

That first ship is hauling ass. From my experience on cruise ships when the pilot gets on the ship is going very slow.
My father was a NY/NJ Harbor Pilot.
Sietas-Yard, Hamburg/Germany, type 168-ship, nice situation calling Cork.
These men are Badassssss
Women are also pilots!
My great grandfather was a river pilot in Cork

Three pilot boats? Hanging out on the windward side
Oh my God and Holy Mother ✓
I worry more than even when I got married ✓ Very touching scene...
Amazing
Has anyone tried flying the boat above the water on a ''wing like'' stabilizer to stay above the waves and stable next to the ship to board, like racing sail boat are doing ?
Surely they can do it over Zoom these days 😜
No point fannying around in the wake of the ship, get alongside and have the pilot aboard.
(Me) "Wow they must be white knuckling"
(Inside cabin) cool as a fucking cucumber didn't even mess up
His hair gel
imagine if i sell my car and my house and the rest ....... then i buy one i dream on.
💪💪💪👍👍👍👍
When is the boarding?
🎖👍
❤
😘😘😘
memang jago ini kapal
There must be a better solution than this.
E.g. guidance from land with cameras and audio
In God we trust
very dengers
شكد سعر
That makes me feel sick 🤢 just watching it 🤮
I haven't heard of marine pilots before. Can't the captain do what they do?
They navigate the ship safely from uncommon waterways the captain is not familiar about but the ship is still in hands of the captain.

On boat to ship Pilot transfers: This is the absolute stupidest primitive thing, I've ever seen. They invented braces and hoists, decades ago. You put on the brace jacket, and attach it to a quick release hoist or pulley lift, that lowers or raises up, the Pilot. Sometimes it's worth it, to break old stupid traditions. Especially where the loss of life, is possible. If this is a rite of passage, it's idiotic.
Nah. My ass staying on the cargo ship. Where to gentlemen? I'll catch an Uber back from China or something, don't worry about it. And if it's getting on the ship, they can find their way. Park anywhere it's cool.
Ubbbbbeeeer 👍😂😂😂
@@Utubin imma eat that surge fee before I let the surge eat me.
Waste of taxpayer money
Could I just say a few swear words
Lo que no entuendo es la intención de los practicos/pilotos. Lo nirmal es que haya solo uno.
