you wait and then wait until the pilot comes on to the bridge , a small , brown man with a moustache and small quick hands and dark eyes , with black pants and shirt and a white cap with spanish on it and the skipper talks to him while you stand across the bridge at the chart table and the gator talks to the skipper and the pilot and you wait and then wait until the pilot comes over to the chart table and then you can see that his skin is pocked with marks and that his arms are covered with dark hairs and then he says something low and quiet to the gator .
