In any case where a surveyor determines that the condition of a pilot boat, its machinery or equipment does not correspond substantially with the requirements of these Regulations or is such that the boat is not fit for service the surveyor shall advise the competent harbour authority and, where appropriate, the owner of the boat of the corrective action which, in his opinion, is required.

give notice thereof to the competent harbour authority, and;
c
return the certified copy of the Certificate to the competent harbour authority.
The surveyor shall return the Certificate issued in respect of the pilot boat to the master of the boat and, where appropriate, the certified copy of the Certificate to the owner of the boat.
5
In the case of an existing pilot boat which is first presented for survey in accordance with regulation 5(1)(b) of these Regulations and where the surveyor determines that the condition of the pilot boat, its machinery or equipment does not correspond substantially with the requirements of these Regulations, or is such that the boat is not fit for service, the surveyor shall advise the competent harbour authority and, where appropriate, the owner of the boat, of the corrective action which, in his opinion, is required. If such corrective action is not taken within a period specified by the surveyor or immediately if the boat is not fit for service, the competent harbour authority shall suspend the service of the boat until such time as the Certificate is issued.
Responsibilities
10
The competent harbour authority and the owner of the boat, and the master of the boat, shall ensure that:
a
a pilot boat does not operate unless it has a valid Pilot Boat Certificate and the boat, its machinery and safety equipment are maintained in good condition provided that until 2nd October 1992 the prohibition on operation without a valid pilot boat certificate shall not apply in the case of an existing pilot boat which has not yet been presented for survey in accordance with regulation 5(1)(b);
b
the boat is manned as required by Chapter 4 of the Code of Practice and operated in accordance with any conditions for granting exemption as specified in the Pilot Boat Certificate;

e
no pilot boat proceeds to sail unless it complies with the requirements of regulation 3, 4 and 7(2) of these Regulations.
Offences and Penalties

1
If regulation 1O(e) of these Regulations is contravened the competent harbour authority and the owner of the pilot boat, and also the master of the boat, shall each be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale in respect of an offence relating to regulation 3 or 4, or level 3 on the standard scale in respect of an offence relating to regulation 7(2).
2
A competent harbour authority and the owner of the boat, and also the master of the boat, who contravene regulation 1O(a), (b), (c) or (d) of these Regulations shall each be guilty of an offence and liable on summary conviction to a fine not exceeding level 4 on the standard scale.
3
In any proceedings for an offence under these Regulations it shall be a defence for the person charged to show that he used all due diligence to ensure compliance with the Regulations.
Power to detain
12
In any case where a pilot boat does not comply with the requirements of these Regulations, it shall be liable to be detained, and section 692 of the Merchant Shipping Act 1894 (which relates to the detention of a ship) shall have effect in relation to the pilot boat, except that for the words “this Act” wherever they appear, there shall be substituted “the Merchant Shipping (Pilot Boats) Regulations 1991”.
