Board of Pilot Commissioners
Photos
The Board of Pilot Commissioners (BOPC) for the Bays of San Francisco, San Pablo, and Suisun has been safeguarding California's coastline and economy since its inception in 1850. By regulating, training, and licensing maritime pilots, the BOPC ensures safe navigation for vessels carrying billions of dollars in cargo through some of North America's most challenging waterways.
As it approaches its bicentennial, the BOPC continues to innovate with industry-leading standards, including the development of environmentally friendly pilot boats that meet strict emission requirements. This commitment not only supports California's supply chains but also underscores the vital yet often overlooked role of pilots in maintaining marine safety and efficiency.
