I piloted ships alongside the Safer a few times when working as a pilot in Yeaman and it was a fairly strong and stout vessel but Yeaman Hunt did not like British pilots working there and wanted American Pilots.The tugs assisting were Dutch and very helpful not like Yeaman Hunt management who treated us with contempt. The crew on the Safer then were Italian and easy to get on with.In my time there we had a break out after warning the American supervisor that the in coming tanker and the Safer were over the tonnage for the terminal, the New York Office said it was okay.
