3:15 if this is just due to company time, that’s just ridiculous 😕 In fact as Mr. Ransom adopted grandson 1987 to Hazel Bolette Jacobsen Hudson Ransom , Chairman… I’m ordering you to respect this pilot 👩‍✈️- and risk life of anymore of my staff… Got it! 😤 😇🇺🇸

YEAH and there must be huge power in the pilot craft to keep it rammed up against the ship like that

Your brother probably knew my father , he was Tug boat skipper out of Newport and often said the storms out in the middle of the channel were unreal

@@jh1751 more than likely JH! The Bristol Channel is a very unstable body of water funnelling up from its wide mouth to the narrower River Severn, 500 years of piloting brought exceptional men and amazing pilot boats to it. As merchant boats got bigger ,the tugs helped navigate them into the narrow dock entrances and to their moorings to unload and load. All vital parts of a well run port! Now, much is handled via the new container ports elsewhere , and the container ships have exceptional manoeuvrability to ‘ go alongside ‘the unloading dockside with very sophisticated systems to unload and load in record time! A very different world now! A

My father took retirement in 95 after he could see that all the investment was getting poured into the West Country ports rather than the Welsh ports even though the Welsh ports had the natural deep water entrances but no matter how many times he fought against it the investment went over to the English side of the river @@viviennewilliams7510

Beautiful words

Thank you 😊

Darn sure - beyond my abilities

Good luck to him

👏👏👏👏👏👏

Well done to have been able to save their life!👍👍

Wow. People have NO idea what it is to be a pilot or to drive the pilot boat. This video and your story shed a little light for those who read it. It takes nerves of steel and strength, balance, and commitment to the moves that are necessary to board and disembark from a ship in a rolling sea. You don't get a second chance so you have to be very sure of your moves, as this lady pilot demonstrates. I'm very sorry to hear of the pilot who fell 38'. That's just unimaginable. The crewmember who decided to take a door off its hinges and make a backboard deserves a salute and all deserved their merits for that night. (Career ICU RN here) Thank you for your service, @birdielaw2853 !

The procedure is extremely dangerous and should be updated. There's no reason in the world that it should be as dangerous as it is.

I believe those “muck up’s” where generally made by male pilots,right?

Agree!

Thank you so much 🥰

I was a marine engineer 4 some years. Never met a Lady pilot. She seems very experienced. Good job mam.

@@rahmanafridi5490 Yes, like you I have worked at sea all my working life. At 55 I am a Tug Captain for the last 25 years. I have worked in many ports with many pilots and never a female one. I think this is great to see. I have a Christmas themed beer can holder here and on it it says, “If the three wise men were women, they would have stopped and asked for directions, arrived on time, brought practical gifts, helped deliver the baby and there would be peace on earth.” I think this it very true. Its great to see more women in our industry. Cheers 🍻

Me. I would have yelled, "jump and will pick you up" :)

Why does the ship not slow down, surely it would be less dangerous for the pilot to disembark to the tender?

@@richard21995 a ship this large takes a very long time to slow down. Also the larger ship most likely has active stability systems that require it to be moving.

@Richard Richards you cant just slow down a ship like that especially not in rough wheater sure theyl slack off anf sail slower between 4 to 7 knots i imagine here but if you go full stop you will be adrift in tbe water and the movements of the ship will be unpredictable at a slow but steady speed the vessel will keep a relatively straight line

Thank you for the wonderful comments mates 🙏

Why this has to be so risky? Why can not we device some mechanism to simplify this? Why can not they just create a slide to send people from ship to boat ?

@@user-sj2rz7md2s Conditions vary too much as do the vessels. Variables such as weather, draft, wave height and frequency. Operators still the best judge.

What’s the difference between sex and gender? 🤔

@@vladm5920 Sex and gender are not the same. In general terms, sex refers to a person's physical characteristics at birth, and gender encompasses a person's identities, expressions, and societal roles.

😉Nice one. Which came first, the red and white international pilot flag or the red and white flag of the Republic of Poland? The formal Polish flag with the white eagle is more impressive.

In the night? Well, I guess at night it will be worse... but I may have a heart failure doing this, day or night!

Uhhh, Don't worry about the sharks. I think you would have been mincemeat before the sharks got there.

I don't even know the reason that this had to take place.

@@kennethbailey6634 a pilot knowledgeable of the local waterways, boards vessels in every port to guide them in and out. Ship's Captain's and mates can't possibly know all the waterways they encounter.

How are you able to determine from the video that they’re not in the lee of the ship? Direction of the swell?

@@tmoe6674 The best indication I can see is the cutter's difficulty in staying alongside; a lot of starboard rudder is being applied to stay alongside. If the cutter could approach given a better lea, it would have been able to come alongside pretty much broadside on, with a little rudder to stay there. Also, after the pilot had been landed on the cutter, it left the ship's side with ease. I remember one stormy night on board Cumbrae pilot cutter (93 tons), trying to get away from the ship's lea side. We were stuck like a limpet due to the lateral movement in the sea of both vessels (making less speed than in the example shown.) This situation creates a powerful suction between the two vessels. With pilot landed, our skipper on the cutter requested the outbound vessel to bring his ship's head into the weather to get us unstuck. I'd be interested to hear your own opinion on this situation.

As a pilot for now 18 years, and over 3000 transits I feel qualified to comment. This was pretty much text book. Cool calm approach by the launch master, assessing the conditions. The pilot, launch master and Captain of the outbound vessel will all have agreed a suitable course and speed, taking into account the swell, sea, wind and sea room available. This is not a chance hit and miss affair. The pilot waited in a safe place on the combination before getting the signal to proceed down the pilot ladder. From then on it's her call when she makes that leap of faith. There is always a certain amount of gamble with this but it is calculated as best it can be. I'm not going to judge. I've done this dozens of times in very similar conditions and worse, sometimes at night and in driving rain. That's the job. The speed is important as it's the amount of power and helm the launch master is using. To slow and and he can't use power and helm to drive the launch against the ship's side. He needs that to keep the launch as stable as possible. Good job all round.

​@@pilotg2426why are they called pilots?

These professionals are the original pilots. Airline pilots and others take their name from these. To Pilot is to guide, to lead into the unfamiliar. Airline pilots know the air, maritime pilots know their waterways. It’s one of the oldest professions. The Rolls of Oleron, one the oldest references dates from at least 1180, and refer to maritime law. I hope this helps

Very risky! Even if not crushed between the boats, if you hit the water it will take you and take you down. I was working on one of two similar proximity vessels, tied together for cargo transfer. Seas started getting rough, we decided to untie, crewmember of the smaller vessel ran down to untie the rope from the cleat, and wham...he was gone. A wave, even if only 6 feet can make you vanish. We searched for hours, with Coast Guard planes, no body...nothing to bring back to the family. Lessons learned.

@@sundromos9456 really tragic! Of course the boats are making 10-15kts, so if you go in, you’re gone. Brave people!

@@IIIIIIPETEIIIIII more like stupid. Bravery is when you risk your life for a good reason or to save someone. I will get thumbs down for this because everyone is fawning over her. The reality is that if she died doing this the last thing people would think was how brave she was. She was very lucky regardless of the fact that she knew how to do it.

@@MrMiddenfacemcnulty She is doing this for good reason though! Around the world, pilots are required by law to board large ships to safely bring them into port.
