Western Australian Current Regulations Western Australian Current Regulations (1) The master of any
vessel that is within a pilotage area —
(a) must
not move the vessel within that pilotage area without the consent of the
harbour master of the port, except as provided in subregulation (2A); and
(b)
unless he or she is an exempt master in respect of that pilotage
area — must obtain the services of a licensed pilot before moving
the vessel if the harbour master so directs.
(2A) If the harbour
master of a port has given consent for a dredging operation to commence, the
master of the dredger may, for the purposes of the operation, move the vessel
within any part of the pilotage area, as permitted by the harbour master.
(2) Where, because of
the structural arrangement of a vessel, the visibility of a pilot conning a
vessel from the normal position is adversely affected, the harbour master may
direct that a second licensed pilot be engaged to assist the first pilot.
