![]() "Joe" wrote in message om... "JN" wrote in message . .. Now you're qualified to take me for an evening sail next summer when I spend my annual week in the Keys and serve me a glass of wine when I demand it, serve me a snack when I want it, and in general put up with all my garbage because I won't give a tip if you don't ????? Huh, cappy wappy? Is that what your paper gives you permission to do? Thats the OZ yachtmaster ticket you must be talking about. I hear the only pratical test a "yachtmaster" has to take, is how quick he can get his knee pads on and off. Here in the USA licences are for working mariners. Joe, it appears that you know as much about the Yachtmaster qualification as you do about international affairs. One of the tests involves sitting at the chart table, with the ports blacked out, and predicting your position to within a few metres. In other words, you have to sail (and navigate) the boat "blind". Do you have to do this for the USCG ticket? Regards Donal -- |
