- TylerE 3y agoThe pilot is employed by the port/government, not the ship. They drive to just outside the entrance, then they get off onto a tugboat or some other small utility vessel.

- shagie 3y agohttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maritime_pilot#Compensation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maritime_pilot#Compensation > The Florida Alliance of Maritime Organizations reported that Florida pilots' annual salaries range from US$100,000 to US$400,000, on par with other US states that have large ports. Columbia Bar pilots earn approximately US$180,000 per year. A 2008 review of pilot salaries in the United States showed that pay ranged from about US$250,000 to over US$500,000 per year.
