NY Harbor Pilots - a day at the office

Sacha Botbol runs this - the Pilot Launch Wanderer to pick up and discharge New York harbor pilots. Some days the office is rougher than others. This is what Beaufort scale Force 10 looks like off the shores of Long Island. For video of similar conditions on the Gulf of Maine posted by the Penobscot Bay pilots click HERE

A nice day:
