Most pilothouses had two sections. The forward part housed navigational equipment and served as the steering station, while the after part was for the crew who sometimes worked aboard these boats for many weeks at a time. The after section is where the crew cooked meals, slept, and relaxed. Pilothouses were often removed from old vessels and used on shore as tally houses, dock offices, and sheds.
