HC Deb 06 March 1913 vol 49 c28

(1) When a ship is navigating in a pilotage district, and has on board a pilot licensed for that district, the master of the ship shall cause a pilot flag to be exhibited in order to show that he has such a pilot on board; and if he fails, without reasonable cause, to do so, he shall be liable in respect of each offence to a fine not exceeding fifty pounds.

(2) Where the master or mate of a ship holds a pilotage certificate, and the ship is navigating within the pilotage district for which the certificate is granted, the master of the ship shall, so long as the master or mate is on board, cause a pilot flag to be exhibited in order to show that a master or mate holding such a certificate is on board, and if he fails without reasonable cause to do so, shall be liable in respect of each offence to a fine not exceeding twenty pounds.
