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.

If a licensed captain hires "Reggie" to crew, he'd also better hire
someone else to actually be the crew.

Way back in the stone age, when we lived in Jax, there was a fellow who
had retired as a port pilot who went into the boat delivery business.
*He* was qualified. I wouldn't trust "licensed captain" with a six pack
ticket to deliver an expensive boat.
