引水人（英语：Pilot）又称领港员、带水、领航员或领水员，指的是在港口、峡湾等水域内，引导船舶进出的专业人员。

领港依其引航水域、地区及国家的不同，除一般港口常见之港口领港（Harbour Pilot）外，其他有如：港湾领港（Bay Pilot）、河道领港（River Pilot）及运河领港（Canal Pilot）等。此外，在欧洲北海航道又设有北海领港（North Sea Pilot）。

A pilot is a mariner who manoeuvres ships through dangerous or congested waters, such as harbors or river mouths, and completes the berthing / unberthing operation of the ships by controlling the ship's manoeuvrability directly and the tugs and shore linesmen through a radio. Pilots are expert shiphandlers who possess detailed knowledge of local waterways. They are transported by high speed pilot boats or helicopter from shore to an inbound ship and from an outbound ship back ashore. Most ports have compulsory pilotage.
