Our Pilot Ladders at Seacon Solutions are manufactured to the highest standards to ensure utmost safety and durability. It is a highly specialized form of rope ladder, typically used on board cargo vessels for the purposes of embarking and disembarking pilots. The design and construction of our ladders follow strictly by the international regulations under the SOLAS regime.

The lowest four steps of the ladder are made from a synthetic or composite resin. It allows more resistance to the interaction between the host vessel and the pilot boat coming alongside, as compared to hardwood.

As the decks of most commercial ships are far above the waterline, pilots and other passengers who need to come aboard at sea can usually only do so if a pilot ladder is put out. When the ladders are not being used, they are usually stowed away (rolled up) instead of being left hanging.
