Pilot Ladder · Accommodation & Access Equipment
The TW Pilot Ladder 9 m by Tyne & Wear Marine is a SOLAS‑V compliant access ladder with hardwood steps, designed for safe pilot transfer on vessels with moderate to high freeboard. As a Pilot Ladder, it is normally installed at an accommodation, embarkation, offshore transfer or aviation access area of the vessel. In that role, its primary purpose is to provide a controlled and structurally supported route or platform for personnel movement. Accommodation ladders, gangways, pilot ladders, personnel baskets and helidecks differ in movement and load path, but all require secure structure, safe access surfaces and documented operating limits. Capacity: 9m, SOLAS Ch. V. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, capacities, materials and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
