2) Anchorage and Detention

a) When a vessel, having entered the Harbour Area, is required to anchor to await the first available tide, or is unable to berth on account of stress of weather or fog, there shall be no additional charge made for shifting the ship from the anchorage to her berth, whether the services of a pilot are employed or not.

b) Where a vessel proceeds from the inner harbour to anchorage to await clearance after loading or discharge, there shall be no additional charge made for shifting the ship from anchorage to sea if the services of a pilot are employed.

c) On every occasion when a pilot is detained for more than one hour while in attendance on a vessel, either before or after the actual pilotage services are rendered, at the request of the owner or person in charge, except where detention is caused by stress of weather, there shall be charged for such detention for every hour (inclusive of the first hour) or part thereof: £70

d) If a vessel's sailing is cancelled after a pilot has been in attendance a charge of 50% of the relevant amount under 1 shall be made in addition to any detention charge incurred.

The foregoing rates will also be applied to foreign flag vessels on condition that they produce to the Harbour Authority an International Tonnage Convention 1969 Certificate showing the vessel's gross tonnage. Any vessel which does not have an ITC 69 Certificate shall be charged on a tonnage calculated with reference to its published dimensions.
