Thomas A. Jacobsen is President and CEO of Jacobsen Pilot Service, a third-generation family business founded by his grandfather in 1924. A 1988 graduate of California Maritime Academy, he spent many years at sea on commercial cargo vessels, earning his U.S. Coast Guard Unlimited Master Mariners License and First-Class Pilotage. After completing the pilot training program, he transitioned into management, where he has led the company to become the first ISO 9001 certified piloting service in the United States and championed the implementation of state-of-the-art technology for precision piloting operations.
Captain Arthur Grant grew up on Catalina Island and has spent his life on the water. A graduate of California Maritime Academy (1986), he sailed on commercial cargo vessels before becoming Captain of the heavy-lift ship American Cormorant at age 30. In 1996, he joined Jacobsen Pilot Service, where he has since completed over 12,000 pilot assignments. He now serves as a senior Watch Captain, playing a key leadership role in operations and in the training and development of both new and experienced pilots.
