A harbor pilot from Puget Sound Pilots climbs a ladder onto Coast Guard Cutter Munro to help guide the crew through the Hiram M. Chittenden Locks in Seattle, Aug. 30, 2016.

During complex navigational evolutions, harbor pilots often work with commanding officers to guide the cutter and crew safely through shallow or unfamiliar waters.
