The Atlantic Pilotage Authority employs professional pilots who are competent in all aspects of ship handling. They have a thorough understanding of the effects of wind, current and tidal influences. This is reflected in the expertise they demonstrate navigating and handling all sizes of vessels in proximity to land and within narrow channels and harbours.




   
The value of a pilot is realized when they judge an approach correctly, anticipate accurately and react effectively. The professional abilities of pilots are integrated with navigational systems, both visual and electronic, and the support of information services. Such resources enable the Atlantic Pilotage Authority to provide a safe and efficient service to all vessels plying the waters of the Atlantic region.
