There are a total of 7 berths in Xingang, with approximate functions: 1 berth for roll on/roll off ships, and 2 berths for livestock ships, both of which are not within the port basin; Berths for 3, 4, and 5 general cargo ships, located on the north side of the harbor basin; The 6 berths are located at the top of the harbor pool, and the cushion design is also small, allowing only small boats to berth; 7,8,9 are three imported bulk grain berths equipped with suction equipment, located on the south side of the harbor basin.

Arrival
1. About two hours before the water diversion station, VHF12 can be called Port Control (VTS), which will wait for one hour after arriving at the water diversion station. The operator is enthusiastic and friendly, and as usual, they inquire about basic information such as ship cargo.
2. The water diversion station 2921.7N-03456.6E is the same as the industrial terminal; The water diversion station is very close to the dock. When approaching, pay attention to speed control (slower is better), and of course, the water diversion will also be commanded by high-frequency remote control in a timely manner.
3. The unique feature of Hong Kong is that the tugboat and the pilot are waiting on the side without reaching the pilot station. The pilot is enthusiastic and friendly, with a high level of proficiency, and does not require anything. The pilot is loaded onto the ship from the tugboat.
4. On the starboard side of the water diversion ladder, take the water surface of the water diversion ladder for two meters, and take the water surface of the tugboat for three meters
5. The tugboat is small and flexible, with advanced materials for the towing cable, which is thin and light. It uses towing cables and is towed by the water diversion station.
