摘要：	A boatyard knows past customers are happy when they return to have another vessel built and want almost no design changes from the previous vessel. We're not talking harbor launches here but the 73'×23'×5.3' all-aluminum pilot boat that the Port of Lake Charles Pilots of Lake Charles, La., recently ordered from Gladding-Hearn Shipbuilding, Duclos Corp. in Somerset, Mass. The pilot boat, a deep-V hull from Ray Hunt Design, New Bedford, Mass., will have "one of the longest pilot runs in the country," said Gladding-Hearn's president Peter Duclos. It's over 30 miles from Lake Charles, through the Calca-sieu Ship Channel - what the locals call "the ditch" - to the Gulf of Mexico and then out to the incoming ship.
