Port Everglades Pilots Association

As pilots we strive to safely, but efficiently, use our waterways. This vessel was only 2” less than the maximum depth permitted in our channel.

Last week, one of our pilot boat captains was able to tow two boaters and their disabled vessel out of harms way just ahead of an inbound container ship. We are very thankful this situation ended positively and continue to ask boaters to stay to the sides of the channel and well clear of ships transiting the port!

Happy Fourth of July!

Gone, but not forgotten. The sacrifices so many have made in the past are the foundation of the freedoms we enjoy in the present. We’re proud to serve all the military vessels that call on our port.

Using a rope ladder that the pilot often cannot fully verify has been rigged correctly is typically the most dangerous part of bringing ships in and out of our port.

Our industry is an almost unending chain working together to tie every house in South Florida to every corner of the globe. Every link has to do its part to support the others in order to provide the goods and services we all use every day.

To all the ships that call on Port Everglades (from the smallest feeders to the largest freighters) and to all of the tugs and shore staff that help us to do what we do best, happy !!
