Compulsory Pilotage

Details: Subject to exemption permitted by law, pilotage at Wellington will be compulsory for vessels of over 100 tons net register tonnage as from 1 October 1952.
The Pilot vessel is not normally on station outside the entrance and vessels requiring a Pilot are required to give twenty-four hours' notice by radio of their expected time of arrival in the pilotage waters, which extend to a distance of three miles seaward, from Outer Rock of Barret Reef. A second notice, confirming or amending the first, is to be sent four hours before the expected time of arrival.

All communications, which should be addressed “Harbourmaster, Wellington”, will be attended to at all hours day and night. Should it not be possible to give previous notice of arrival, it may be up to one and a half hours after a vessel is sighted by the Signal Station, at Beacon Hill before a Pilot can board the vessel.

In the event of a Pilot being unable to board a vessel in heavy southerly weather, the vessel will be led through the entrance and boarded in smooth water.
