Licensed by the State of Louisiana and charged with the protection of the citizens and environment of the state, the Crescent Pilots navigate ships along the 106-mile stretch between Pilottown and New Orleans. Rated as one of the most difficult and treacherous routes in North America, the job requires a thorough knowledge of the local currents, tides, shoals, aids-to-navigation, landmarks and weather conditions.

From 100,000-ton tankers to cruise ships with thousands of tourists, Crescent Pilots guide vessels of varying shapes and sizes, each with different handling characteristics on the water.
