Photo History of Charleston Pilots

 

Video: How Does the Port Work?

We had a blast taking part in this State Ports Authority educational video for elementary and middle school kids in South Carolina.  While it is a simplified version of what happens when a ship is in port, it is a great “behind the scenes” look at the maritime community for all ages.  Our Executive Director John Cameron plays the role of the pilot very well! Please note that for logistics reasons, we filmed his boarding in the harbor, even though the actual boarding occurred, like always, offshore before the ship entered the shipping channel.
