Rare Copper10-8 Posted November 20, 2015 #141 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Excuse my ignorance, but why would they do a pilot transfer? Harbor pilots (experienced sea captains themselves) are mandatory to take large ships in and out of many, though not all, ports. Upon arrival, and upon departure, they transfer from their pilot boat and board the large ship via 'pilot ladder'. After arriving in port (and again prior to departure) they board the big ship via the gangway (usually, but not always ;)) and are escorted from/to the bridge where they meet the captain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vbmom87 Posted November 20, 2015 #142 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Did you catch a glimpse of your son?:) Nope, but we were texting. Next best thing. His inlaws have an aft cabin, so I was sending my karma to the aft cabins. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St Pete Cruiser Posted November 20, 2015 #143 Share Posted November 20, 2015 Zuiderdam looked good to me. The top side rails not as crowded as Equinox Or Princess. Ofcourse I'm partial to the dark hull and white upper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
