Nautical Education
Welcome to Captain Chaney's Nautical services,
Here is how to get your Captain license, take 3 USCG test consisting of navigation general & chart plotting, deck general, rules of the road. Show sea time on a body of water (lake, river, bay, inter coastal water way = inland, out to 100 miles off shore = near coastal, great lakes= great lakes) on a vessel that you own or have served on and have the owner of the vessel fill out and attest to that service. You will need 365 days for a OUPV (6 pac) with 90 days current within the last year, or 720 days for a master with 90 days current with in the last year. Pass a USCG physical, drug screen, and have cpr & first aid, pass a homeland security back ground check, be 21 years of age or older no cap on the age limit. Theres more to process so if your not discouraged at this step you proceed to the (REC) regional exam center near you to process your paperwork.
There are Federal regulations know as US title 18 cfr 46 and cfr 47 that cover maritime licensing and collision avoidance. (note cfr stands for code of federal regulation,) this is a must know section just like having your motor vech. license knowing the laws to drive a car this is the same but pertaining to water navigation and safe operation of a vessel.
