I—The Pilot's Task

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  18 January 2010

Abstract

The following discussion on marine pilotage took place at an Institute meeting held at the Royal Geographical Society on 19 February 1954, with Wing Commander E. W. Anderson in the chair. Commander Akerman, who has had considerable experience as a Trinity House pilot, first of all outlines the general requirements of navigation in restricted waters, and Mr. Hansford then proposes what he conceives to be the best solution at the moment to the problem of pilotage in poor visibility. Both contributions are here presented in summary.
