pilot station : ウィキペディア英語版 | pilot station
A pilot station is an onshore headquarters for maritime pilots or place pilots can be hired. To get from a pilot station to an approaching ship, pilots need to take a quick vessel to arrive in time, i.e. a pilot boat. Historically, pilot stations would often be found on an island or other point at sea near a harbour, giving them ample time to transfer to an approaching boat. With modern pilot boats being much faster, however, the need for this has been reduced and most pilot stations are on the mainland. Occasionally ''pilot station'' can refer to a place on the bridge of a ship where a pilot is positioned while guiding a ship, for example a pilothouse, but this use is less common.
