I'd be interested in discussing what the requirments are to be hired as a
captain to move vessels up and down the east coast. I'm currently beginning
to plan for a retirement/2nd career. It occuurred to me while attending one
of the local boat shows, that somebody has to move the larger yatchs from
Florida up north to the shows and then back again - if unsold. Also, there
must be lots of wealthy individulas who own large boats in the Northeast
that pay to have them brought south for the winter months and then back up
north again.

What type of Captrain's license is required and who do you approach to find
employment in this field? Also be curious to know what type of pay is
involved.

TIA,
