G Do yourself a favor, Joe, don't bite to this obvious Neal troll.
Neal's just a 6-pac operator,..... maybe

ROFL I'll give you credit for trying.
He's saying USMM officer .... that means he could possibly hold any one of a
number of licenses that are so far above you in the heirachy.
Give it up, Neal, you've been caught out as a trolling phony (self admitted
class).

Thats better, Id never admit to being in the CG.

Merchant marines officers is much more salty.

I don't know about your license but mine says the following
in nice big letters:

UNITED STATES COAST GUARD
LICENSE
TO U.S. MERCHANT MARINE OFFICER

This is to certify that *real name* having been duly
examined and found competent by the undersigned
is licensed to serve as MASTER OF STEAM OR
MOTOR VESSELS OF NOT MORE THAN 25 GROSS
TONS UPON NEAR COASTAL WATERS; ALSO,
OPERATOR OF UNINSPECTED PASSENGER VESSELS
AS DEFINED IN 46 U.S.C. 2101 (42) UPON NEAR
COASTAL WATERS NOT TO EXCEED 100 MILES
OFFSHORE.

S.Simon - once again having to explain things to a so-called higher
up licensee.

G So, once again to explain to Neal, you don't have him beat, he has
you beat.
Also, words on a license are one thing, and what those words mean to
those of us who "are", are another .... Do you have a MMD (Z-card)?
If not, many would not consider you a USMM officer, no matter what the
license says....
Try to understand, Neal, what the USCG says, is not the final word
within the industry, it's just the governmental, beauracratic take, on
the issue, for the purpose of licensing.
If you really do have a 25 ton license, we give you credit for getting
it. However, if all you have done is get the license and never used it
(which appears to be the case), then, to those of us who "are", you have
simply spent some minimal time and taken a minor test, which proved only
that you could pass the test (talk the talk) not that you could do the
job (walk the walk).
Try to understand, Neal, there are many "professional" mariners out
there, be they 6-pac or unlimited Masters, whose life, profession, etc.,
revolves around being on the water..... a license, does NOT make you a
professional, it just makes you a license holder ..... and THAT, Neal,
is ALL you have proven, to us, to be..

If you don't have the basic intelligence, needed to understand this
concept, then you probably don't have the basic intelligence to
understand what has been said, above.
