The Crescent River Port Pilots' Association is a Louisiana-licensed maritime pilot organization that navigates ships along the 106-mile stretch between Pilottown and New Orleans. The role requires deep knowledge of currents, tides, shoals, navigation aids, landmarks, and weather to safely guide vessels of varying sizes on the Mississippi River. From large tankers to cruise ships, pilots manage ships with different handling characteristics amid conditions such as fog, storms, swift currents, and heavy traffic that increase the route's complexity.

The association is based in Belle Chasse, Louisiana, and maintains a website at crescentpilots.com. On average, Crescent Pilots log over 16,000 turns and move nearly 560 million tons of cargo on the Mississippi River each year. The organization reports a safety record of 99.98 percent and notes its contribution to a maritime economy that supports more than 380,000 jobs and $37 billion in national economic output.
