A P ILO T efin t on A D i i . A pilot is a person who makes a business of conducting vessels in an d out of port , through narrow channels , up rivers , or along coasts where the navigation is especially diin cult or dangerous . The business of an ocean pilot is very much different from that a a s of l ke pilot . Ocean steam ers do not generally carry pilots a a a a La m r l aw p rt of their perm nent crew . ke stea ers a e required by a a to c rry two or three pilots aboard as part of their crew . The m ster an d mates of an ocean steamer must be pr oficient navigators an d be a a e m ble to t k their ship fro on e part of the world to another , but when they approach a port a pilot comes out in a sm all boat an d takes a an d a ch rge of the vessel conducts her into the h rbor . But on the Great Lakes every master an d mate of a steam er must also be a licensed pilot an d be able to pilot his ship through al l the difficult a an ch nnels d along the five thousan d miles of dangerous coasts , an d e besides b ing able to take the ship safely into one port , as the ocean a a pilots do, he is expected to be ble to t ke his ship into the scores a a a a La m a an of h rbors th t bound on the Gre t kes . A Co m nder of A a an a meric n oce w rship , who is now doing service on the Govern a as a a ment ships on the l kes , is quoted s ying th t he considers the a a a lake pilots the best pilots in th e world . He s ys th t in single trip th e a a through n rrow ch nnels of the St . Clair an d D etroit rivers , you would meet more ships than you would meet in a trip from N ew Y k E I n or to the ast ndies , a d the greater part of these ships would m e e be the ma moth ste l fr ighters that, from a distance, appear too big an d unwieldy to be handled at al l . A n d these big ships ar e taken through these narrow channels at night just as safely as they ar e in the daytime . In th e trip from Lake E rie to Lake Superior a pilot h as a r to t ke his ship through the Detroit, St . Clair an d 800 ivers , the a a a 15 A n ggreg te dist nce of these rivers being over 0 miles . d when the lake is reached the same vigilance is needed as is required in the rivers . With 2 500 vessels doing business on the Great Lakes there all m will , of course , be many in sight the ti e . Collisions have to be a a a a n d voided, not only with bo ts , but with flo ting wrecks , r fts , a with tc . Is n and a e . a a sunken rocks , sho ls , , etc it y wonder then th t the business of a lake pilot is an im portant one . E very year the Govern ment of the United States is drawing the lines tighter around the m was a e as a lake pilot .

Interagency Management and Administration of Historic Lighthouse Structures: Suggested Guidelines Appendix: Light Stations Surveyed for this Research *Published in magazine format in The Keepers Log, Vol. XX, No. 4, 2004 1.0 Introduction As a member of the American Lighthouse Coordinating Committee (ALCC) I was asked to research the issue of public access and programming at historic light stations. I’m no stranger to this subject, having been director of Chicago’s suburban Lighthouse Park District and the District-operated Grosse Point Lighthouse National Landmark for the last 21 years. Also, I have previously performed research on this topic in 1997 that was published in The Keepers Log (Vol. XIV, No. 1, Fall Edition), publication of The United States Lighthouse Society. Since that time interest and visitation at lighthouses has increased unabated and the issues surrounding public access to historic lighthouses has become somewhat problematic as more tourism causes additional wear and tear on facilities, and stress on the management. The growing popularity of lighthouses has made them a valuable marketing tool used to lure more people, and their money, to communities.
