The Hudson River Pilots Association, established in 1958, is a group of federally and state licensed pilots who safely guide vessels along the Hudson River to the ports of Albany, NY. With a transit time of 11-13 hours from Yonkers to Albany, these experienced pilots navigate through sharp turns, under bridges, and narrow channels to ensure the efficient and secure transportation of goods and passengers.
As the front line in protecting the river environment and maintaining safe commerce, the Hudson River Pilots Association plays a crucial role in the transportation industry. They provide launch services, pilotage for yachts, and offer valuable information on tide predictions and vessel transit considerations. With their expertise and dedication, they ensure the smooth flow of maritime traffic along the historic Hudson River.
