So awesome to find your channel! My boys and I love watching the ships from Remley’s Point. It would be cool to catch some video of you and your tug from the bridge!

That was something. Never considered the pilot taking their own navigation gear. Makes sense though. Familiarity breeds confidence. Thanks to all that facilitated this.

Their GPS gear is a system that uses a local base station to provide very, very accurate GPS correction data. Known in the GISS world as RTK (real-time kinematics)

That was awesome. 2 ships in the same video, and looking and listening to the bridge as Josh the pilot coordinates the harbour nav :) It was cool to see that his nav pad had a position predictor based on the rate of turn, speed etc.

Great video. It's nice that you were able to board the container ship and see how the pilot does his job on a container ship. Unfortunately, the wind picks up the microphones when it's windy.
