Re: Atlantic Star At Seaforth.
Some good photos in the gallery in that post.
ACL only used appointed pilots in Liverpool of which, I think, there were only 2 or 3. One of them had a brother who was a Southampton pilot and both the Liverpool and Southampton one were always at great pains to impress on you there importance and skills in piloting the Passenger ships in Southampton and the ACL ships in Liverpool.
Wonder if ACL are still using appointed pilots only, a system that should have died out years ago.

The best things in life are free, John #6 I had the binoculars with me, You are right regarding pilots i was trying to work out why there where one pilot coming back which was not the usual Mersey pilot boat, And the Mersey pilot boat going out along side a Norwegian Bulker, It now makes sense.
