It's not my fault if the authorities are slow to
process the renewal. My license remains valid
until revoked. When the license renewal is processed
and returned to me the date of issue of the new license
will be the date of expiration of the old one. This
means My license never expired and I can legally
operate under the old one with while the paper
work is being processed.

Since it is not mentioned in the COLREGS you may not be aware that you
cannot use the license during the grace period.

But it's not like you will make any less money with it anyway.

If you really have a licence you can look on the lower right hand
corner and it will state very clearly when it expires. On that date
that piece of paper is just another piece of trash cluttering your
derelict.

What you believe is irrelevant as usual.

Wrong again simpleton. The expiration date on your license, is the last day you
could use it.
The years grace period, only gives you time to renew, without having to retake
the license exam.
If you are using the license and it has expired, I would not hesitate to turn
you in for operating without one ... EG though I cannot for the life of me
think of what you might be doing, that would require one.
