Yes, the driver of a boat can be referred to as a pilot, especially in the context of larger vessels or commercial shipping. However, for smaller boats, the term "captain" or "operator" is often used. The term "pilot" typically implies someone who is skilled in navigating specific waters or handling complex maneuvers.
