Abstract

This paper studied and recommended the improvement of the speed limitation system for pilot boats through analyzing the significance of speed limitation system in the Port of Busan and the contents therof and scrutinizing the pilotage function and pilot boats. The basic direction of improvement on the maximum navigation speed limitation system for pilot boats is to achieve harmoniously both the purpose of which the maximum navigation speed limitation system is intended and the purpose of ensuring the safe operation of vessels in pilotage zones that is the core function of pilotage. In summation of this study, first, it is necessary and appropriate that the pilot boats should be exempted from applying the maximum navigation speed limitation. Second, from the prospective of marine traffic safety, the marine traffic control should be more strongly exercised even for the exempted vessels. Third, it is necessary to improve the maximum speed limitation system for ensuring its detailedness and validity. However, this issue needs to be driven towards after thorough elaboration on the relevant elements such as marine traffic conditions in port, marine meteorological conditions, physical characteristics, etc. and reflecting various views of interested parties through adequate hearing process.
