This role is essential in providing expert guidance and support to commanding officers and captains, representing the King’s Harbour Master (KHM).

Role Responsibilities

As part of the KHM organization, admiralty pilots play a crucial role in ensuring the safe navigation of vessels within the Dockyard Port of Plymouth. They are responsible to the KHM through the Chief Admiralty Pilot (CAP) for the execution of their duties.
