Hats off to these incredible seamen.
These guys can keep this line of work to themselves.

Thats insane. You'd have to have a good stomach for that job.
makes me green jst watching lol!
thanks tunatiser, It would be a great job in calm weather but thats pretty crazy. those pilot boats must have geat hull for some of the weather they face.
cheers tassie JR
Far out thats crazy i would get sick at the sight of those waves
Preaty cool vid tho
That is exceptional boat handling and trust between the pilot and the skipper.
Did that guage really show a roll of 20 degrees?
20 degrees roll is actually not uncommon with ships in heavy seas
most mast's are made to snap at 25 degrees, id rather be on the pilot than the tanker. the roll on a larger ship is much worse. imo
WIVES CANT LIVE WITH EM, BUT SURE CAN FISH WITHOUT EM.
