Neal, don't try to talk about Merchant Marine Officers and licenses. You aren't
one, don't hold one, never have and never will, no matter what some piece of
paper says ....i.e., it's a subject, beyond your experience and comprehension.

Shen

Thank you. I think the U.S.C.G licenses rely more
on 'book' knowledge and less on a practical exam
as there is no practical exam at all out on a boat.

I would say the U.S.C.G. license is more geared
towards motor vessels and a master's responsibility
in regards to that. Safety of life at sea is a very
high priority. Being a Merchant Marine Officer
is not like being a sailing yachtsman at all.

While a sailing yachtsman is generally a better
seaman by virtue if his intimacy with the sea, the
Merchant Marine Officer is better versed in
the rules and regulations concerning running a
commercial ship and carrying passengers for
hire.

Here, folks, is an example of jealousy and lack of respect.
JN is no gentleman.

Lack of respect ..... probably. I admit it, I'm a cad.
No gentleman..... yur right, nope I ain't.
Jealous ..... of what? You only need that license if you intend to take
money for operating a vessel. I don't intend to so there's nothing for me
to be jealous about.

Allow me to offer my congratulations!

How does your USCG Masters licence compare with the(Internationally
renowned) RYA Yachtmaster qualification?

Do I have to look *up* to you, or should I offer words of

encouragement?

Offer encouragement, his licence requires no examination of practical
skills NOR sailing!


It's a cruel world! ........ A beginner like me can look down on an expert
like the great Capt. Neal!

You should take a look at the Yachtmasters, it's far more demanding
than your silly little title.


No, it isn't.

That and $1.50 will get you on the subway.

Hear ye, hear ye, hear ye. Hear ye, all my fellow
USCG licensed Masters.

This is to notify Misters Shen44, otnmbrd, Jeff Morris,
Rick, Joe, Schoonertrash, Fulmor and any other of my
fellow Masters who might be reading this announcement
that I am in possession of my renewed U.S. Merchant
Marine Officer license issued on 11 December, 2003.

For those who disrespect and disbelieve the number
on the document is 1045941. Expiration date is Dec.
11, 2008.

I wish to remind all those who claimed it would take
months to renew my license and possibly longer, I
wish to further remind those who claimed I was
incapable of submitting all paperwork in order and
I wish to remind all those who claimed the Coast
Guard was slow and inefficient that they were
wrong as usual.

The Coast Guard does a fine job and treats with
professional courtesy and respect those who
treat them the same.

Please note that it took less than a month between
the time I submitted my paperwork until I received
the renewed license document. This is probably due,
in part, because I treated the Officer in Charge of
Marine Inspection with courtesy and respect by
submitting my papers with everything in order and
no nits to pick. I made his job even easier by living
an exemplary life where any background checks
revealed a model citizen.

Merry Christmas to one and all from:

Capt. Neal
Master of Motor Vessels, Near Coastal
Operator Uninspected Passenger Vessels
