Abstract
Remote pilotage, i.e., helping a vessel to harbour somewhere else than aboard the vessel, is now legally possible on the Finnish shipping fairways. A pilot’s official role is to be an advisor to the ship’s captain, who, with the crew on board, actively handles the ship and takes responsibility. However, it seems that in many practical cases, the pilot takes the lead and the ship’s captain adopts a more passive and submissive work style. This departure from the official practice should be taken into account in the design of a user-centered and safe remote-pilotage solution. Especially for a captain with a submissive work style, a remote-pilotage solution could turn out to be a challenge.
