I have a license. Did you want a particular kind of license?

In theory no license at all is required for delivery work but in
practice owners and insurance companies usually expect a USCG Near
Coastal Master's ticket for people who will be running the boat.


I have a Georgia Drivers License, and past 4 courses with CG AUX,
and have meet people who have a Coastal Master License, does that
count?

It means that for most people hiring someone to deliver a boat, you
are qualified to crew for the USCG licensed Captain.

Although ... I've had past experience that indicates that a USCG
license doesn't necessarily mean the Captain is qualified.

HL Aviation?



Water under the bridge. But it still cost about $5k to get all the
fiberglass damage on the stern and bow fixed.

I knew about the stern. Didn't notice the damage to the bow until it
was hauled at the end of the season. ****ed me off. I was an amateur
when I took it to FL and I didn't put a scratch on it.
1000 ton licensed captain with all kinds of experience smashes into
everything apparently.

And then he has the balls to use me as a reference.
