Introducing the *new* Pilot boat Golden Gate!

Following the namesake of its predecessor, the new P/V Golden Gate will provide high speed service for the San Francisco Bar Pilots Association.
Servicing the San Francisco Bay, and taking Pilots to the Off-shore station boat.
This new state of the art vessel is equipped with the latest in low emissions technology from MAN engines and Hamilton water jets. This is the first first in a new generation of pilot vessels that will meet CARB tier 4 emission requirements. All while being more fuel efficient. And, It’s also really fast! Like, over 30 knots fast!

OMG! I remember an old episode of I Love Lucy in which Lucy missed her ship to Europe and had to take a pilot boat out to it. After all these years I now understand what a pilot boat is used for! Thank you! 😊😊😊
