The port in Durban employs not only a pilot boat service, but also a helicopter pilot service - dropping the pilot onboard vessels by means of helicopter. So in preparation for our arrival in Durban, the Deck department have painted a large yellow dot on the aft of Deck 8 to aid the helicopter when it drops the pilot onboard. Be sure I'll try and get as close to the action (as is safely possible) when this happens next week!
