....as a whore in church! Tomorrow, I start testing for my Cheif Mate/ Masters Lic. I take 9 modules over 5 days. They combined the test so it is harder but if I pass it, it is the last one I will have to take! After working 360 actual days as a C/M, I will be given my Master of Steam and Motor Vessels of any Gross Tons, Oceans!

If you are talking about the Pilots, neither. I work for the ACOE on a dredgeship. Who do you know with Cresent or Federal pilots? I may know them too!

OH! 3 down, 6 to go! Passed Ruels of the Road(a 90% min. needed to pass subj.) and Deck General parts A and B(%70 min. to pass). 6 more to go with the tough ones ahead. Celestrial Nav., Stability, Tresterial Nav., Chart Plot are thr gottcha ones with formula out the ying yang! My old brain is being taxed to it's limit with sine, co-sine, tangent, co-tangent and the rest! Yes. They do allow caculators!!! :shock:
