Transferring a pilot from the 290 m (
ft) cruise ship grand princeSS (1998,
Fincantieri Cantieri Navali Italiani,
Monfalcone, Italy) before returning to
its Ogden Point berth is the Pacific
Pilotage Authority’s 1,344 kW (1,800 hp)
triple-waterjet powered launch pacific
Scout (2007, ABD Enterprises). The
Carmarc-designed pacific Scout was the
second of two pilot launches built by
ABD, with the pacific navigator launched
a few months earlier. The vessels were
built with triple 600-hp Detroit Diesel/
MTU Series 60 diesels driving three
Hamilton HM 461 waterjets via ZF 350
1.58:1 gears (see “pacific Scout: Second
Pilot Launch from ABD Enterprises” in
the September 2008 Western Mariner).
