GOOD JOB CHRIS,
I FINISHED MINE IN JAN. TOOK IT WITH CAPT FRED AND THE 3 B'S CAPTAIN SCHOOL. I SUBMITTED THE PACKAGE LAST WEEK. MAKE SURE THAT IF YOU HAVE EVER BEEN GIVEN A TICKET FOR ANYTHING ON THE WATER "EVEN IF IT WAS A WARNING" WRITE IT DOWN ON A SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET. AND MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THREE LETTERS OF RECOMMENDATION AND THE ONE FROM THE SCHOOL DOES NOT COUNT. GOOD LUCK, TOM

I was thinking of just letting someone turn the PW in for me and make sure its perfect. I hear that if a T isnt crossed they turn it away and its a long wait after that

I used Mark Grossetti when I turned my paperwork in. He was very helpful. I filled out a couple things wrong and he straightened it out for me and had my ticket back to me within 2 weeks. If you email Mark he'll answer any questions you might have.

[tolmaz]

Your gonna love it when the teacher says" a powerboat under way/making way trolling must stay clear of a sail boat. Like thats news! then you get to the part where a sailboat by the rules MUST display a cone apex down while using propulsion along with sails and has the same rights as a boat trolling. They laugh about that. One guy in the class stands up and says" why would we put the cone out? then the power boats wouldnt get out of the way! then the room fills with laughter all except myself and one other fisherman. I was biting my lip!


This was me in the class with a bunch of blow boaters, Im the blue ball

My guy is an ex LT. Coastie midshipman. He just thinks all rec boaters are dumb. But he has a bunch of cool stories about Hatians and other crazy stuff.
