It is self-righting and unsinkable. This boat is the third in a series of the same type. It is crewed by 2 men and can carry 7 pilots.

The port authorities and the pilot station of Le Havre have signed an agreement in view of a joint utilisation of the pilots’ new manoeuvring simulator. This partnership will add weight to the forthcoming port planning, whether it be the new lock, the enlargement of Port 2000 or the methane terminal in Antifer. Set up two months ago, this software allows the user to reconstruct a chosen environment with surprising realism.

Arrivé en décembre dernier, le nouvel hélicoptère Dauphin N3 de la station a été mis en service ce mois-ci. Capable d’atteindre 280 km/h, le Dauphin, bimoteur est équipé d’un nouveau dispositif d’hélitreuillage. La mission de ce nouvel engin demeure la mise à bord au moyen du treuil ou directement par appontage, du pilote à bord des navires en approche du Havre ou d’Antifer. En 2004, 10 % des mouvements sur rade du Havre ont été assurés par les airs, soit 1400 sorties.
