Island Princess pilot dies in Nawiliwili Harbor accident

"While transitioning from the Island Princess cruise ship to the waiting pilot boat, Lyman was pitched overboard, injured by the pilot boat, possibly even the propeller, recovered by the pilot boat captain, and brought to Nawiliwili Small Boat Harbor, where members of an awaiting American Medical Response ambulance crew brought him to Wilcox Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead."
