Pilot
Pilot, a person taken on board at any particular place for the purpose of conducting a ship through a river, road, or channel, or from or into a port, defined in s. 742 of the (English) Merchant Shipping Act, 1894, as meaning 'any person not belonging to a ship who has the conduct thereof.' Pilots are established in various parts of the country, by ancient charters of incorporation or by particular statutes. The most important of these in-corporations are those of the Trinity House, Deptford Stroned; the fellowship of the Pilots of Dover, Deal, and the Isle of Thanet, commonly called the Cinque Port Pilots; and the Trinity Houses of Hull and New castle. For the general law on the subject of pilots and pilotage, see the Pilotage Acts, 1913 (2 & 3 Geo. 5, c. 31) and amending Acts and the Pilotage Authorities (Limitation of Liability) Act, 1936 (26 Geo. 5 & 1 Edw. 8, c. 36).
