General San Martin (PEGSM)

The multipurpose port offers a single quay and four berths able to cater for passengers, containers, Ro-Ro, bulk and project cargo. The port has been operational since 1969 and has undergone a huge modernisation project following the 2007 earthquake and TPPARACAS taking over operations from ENAPU in 2014.

Tropical.

The quay is supported by 40 fenders, 40 mooring bollards and 11 access ladders. In the event of congestion within the port for the use of the infrastructure, the Deputy Management/Head of Operations for the Paracas Port Terminal SA will determine the order and give equal rights to the user. Mooring and unmooring services will be provided and made up of one foreman, three bowmen and three stern gavieros, the personnel will be available 20mins before each manoeuvre. In the case of congestion in the port and lack of moorings for docking, a priority order will be handed out in the following order: ..... 1. Vessels carrying emergency cargo destined for areas affected by earthquakes, tsunami, fires, epidemics, social assistance programs or other emergencies. 2. Passenger vessels 3. Vessels carrying perishable cargo 4. Cargo vessels with fixed itineraries and cabotage 5. Fishing vessel (if dock is available and must undock before the ETA of the vessel assigned to the berth) 6. Other vessels according to their date, ETA and dock availability based on berthing assignment

Compulsory with an ETA sent via VHF 24hrs in advance. Alignment (234.9°) of front and rear range lights leads from the pilot boarding position towards the quay. Pilots will board 0.5nm NE of the lighted buoy located off Punta Pejerrey and by the NW edge of Anchorage Area No. 1. This location is bounded by the following locations: ..... Latitude Longitude 1. 13°47.50’S 76°16.80’W 2. 13°47.50’S 76°16.33’W 3. 13°47.90’S 76°16.33’W 4. 13°47.90’S 76°16.80’W Masters should anchor in the official roadstead, otherwise the Harbour Master will charge pilotage for shifting the vessel to a safer place in the roadstead. In the event that the LOA exceeds 200m, the use of 2 pilots will be mandatory. Foreign flag naval vessels must use pilots for all manoeuvres in the port. The communication of the pilotage service will be in English or Spanish, whilst using the standardised phrases established by the Maritime Organization (IMO). Pilot will transfer the vessel from the anchorage area to the terminal dock, the service will advise the captain on mooring and the manoeuvrability of entry and exit from the port. Pilots are not needed when the vessel moves on the same dock, as long as it does not use tugs or machines. If the vessel's propulsion and steering is not to a good standard and condition, the pilot will refrain from providing the piloting service and will communicate to the Port Terminal and competent authorities. In the event of adverse weather conditions, the pilots will determine the numbers of tugs and other manoeuvring elements required to carry out the service. If the vessel does not have the required elements, then the vessel must communicate this to the APN, Port Captaincy and Port Terminal.

The following navigational aids are available: Front light (red tower, 23m in height) 13°47.9'S., 076°17.5'W. Rear light (similar structure, 29m in height). Isla Chincha del Centro Light (white round GRP tower, blue bands, on concrete base, 18m in height) 12°28.3'S., 076°48.0'W. From the quay, lights are shwon at either end. A separate light, obstructed from within the bay, is shown from Punta Colorado, located 1.6nm W of Punta Pejerrey.

Along the N side of the Paracas Peninsula, located adjacent to the shoreline, is a restricted zone established for the Paracas Nature Reserve.

MHWS 0.6m; MHWN 0.3m. Current: The rate of the N going current is 0.5-0.75kt. In the approach to Isla San Gallan from N, a set towards land has experienced.

A TSS has been established in the approaches to Puerto Pisco. This is due to the fact that a lighted buoy marks the centre of the 400m diameter precautionary area which must be avoided.

Compulsory, one tug in/out if vessel has working bow thruster, no bow thruster 2 tugs in/out. In the event that a vessel is waiting to moor and two tugs are not available, vessels may do so with one tug as long as the vessel's bow-thruster operational and is certified by the agent and the vessel command in coordination with the Pilot Captain.

Prevailing winds: W'ly. In the area of Bahia Pisco, from a little before midday until about 2 hours after sunset, sea breezes from S and SE combine with the trade wind to produce a local offshore wind 'Paracas', which carries dust and sand in suspension, limiting visibility, and at times, restricting port operations. These winds are felt all the year around, and blow strongly from Jul-Sep. Sand storms: From August, sand storms may occur and as a result they will reduce visibility and stop all cargo operations.
