Harbour Master
Harbour Masters
Worldwide there are approximately 3,000 merchant ports and the work of the Harbour Master can vary widely from country to country and from port to port even within the same country.

IHMA is pleased to introduce its newest Commercial Member Safehaven Marine.
SAFEHAVEN MARINE are builders of Professional Pilot vessels in sizes from 11.5m up to 18m. We have built and supplied over 55+ pilot vessels worldwide in the last 18 years, and over 150 vessels since being established in 1998 and are considered leaders in this field, specializing in pilot boats with 80% of our production being dedicated to this market niche. Safehaven Marine have gained a fine reputation for building pilot boats with exceptional strength and depth of engineering gained from our years of experience. Our pilot boats have an unmatched reputation for sea keeping abilities and are chosen by Ports exposed to big ocean waves, tidal races and challenging conditions where the pilot boat must operate in all weather conditions.
Harbour safety is a critical concern for port and terminal operators, yet traditional safety equipment often falls short—prone to corrosion, high maintenance costs, and poor visibility in critical situations. These challenges put workers at risk and increase operational inefficiencies.
