Below is the story the Belgium pilots received from a very happy captain:
"I, the Master in command of the good ship ZIM ANTWERP, would like to convey my professional impression following berthing the dock of '_PSA HNN Deurganck Terminal Quay 1742'_ at a totally zero visibility and dense fog.
I was highly impressed by the top notch professionalism of the pilots who berthed my ship on 5/NOV 2012 early morning hours in a zero visibility. I was also very impressed by the instruments (ADX XR) they have used for the maneuver.
It was the first time in my marine career (26 years) when I saw a vessel berthed at a dense fog like that. Where usually other ports around the world close down the port until the fog is lifted, in this port they actually berthed the ship, and this is a great achievement in our industry.
Summarizing the above, I congratulate and salute you for a JOB VERY WELL DONE."
Capt. Simon Hadar,
Master M.V. ZIM ANTWERP
