  • Showing off. In conditions of heavy weather Sea Pilots are transferred by helicopter, they don't risk their lives unnecessarily. This isn't force 9, though.

  • There are no helicopters in use at any Irish port, sometimes they have to work in these conditions, check out 'Violent storm force 11 smoking water' a little bit more windy here!

  • It's not a pilot boat. It's an RNLI life boat.

  • It is an Interceptor 42 pilot boat built by Safehaven Marine, not an RNLI boat.

  • There are some newer videos of these pilot boats with even better rough weather footage, search "Violent storm force 11" in you tube search, its well worth viewing.

  • @nmcarpenter They only wrote CORK PILOT on the side because they want you to think it's a CORK PILOT boat.

  • @gamesbok Pretty sure it says CORK PILOT on the side of it. Try moving your monitor closer to your face. :D

  • I repect all my Irısh pilot friends which they most probayl work rough weather conditions.Irısh Sea is one of the most dangerous open sea pilotage area.You go out and meet the ships open sea.Which is not very calm most of the times.

    God bless you Irısh pilots we fully appreciate your work.

  • great video. that boat sure rides well. My Dad use to run the pilot boat can-Do out of Gloucester MA. I use to go out with him to put pilots on the ships and guide them to the harbor. There is video about my Dad captain Frank Quirk on youtube just go on and hit videoforpilotboatcando. For all the pilots and captians of the pilot boats be safe and good luck.

  • Great boat and nice shots. No where's near 30 foot waves though. Closer to 8-10's.

  • seems like r/c boat?

  • if that sea was force 9 that little ship was with the fish and on the sand...
