Congrats, TH. But how do we know that is real? I don't see the TH name in the field.

Is that the longform of your seaman certificate, or a photocopy?

:hmm:

Here is the real deal. Got it in over the weekend.

No firearms on board.

 

[NAC4EV]

Have you ever been to sea Billy.

 

[LevelSea]

When do they issue your eye patch and peg leg?

 

[Printer Bandit]

so basically it's a certificate for riding on boat?

 

[tortoise]

Here is the real deal.

The chronicle of your experience has been very interesting! Definitely opens up options for those afflicted with wanderlust . . Kwaj for example.

 

[BurnItDwn]

Congrats Tex.

They say no firearms on board, but theres probably at least a couple flare guns ... you could use one of those like a firearm in an emergency!

 

[zinfamous]

No firearms on board.

sucks. That water ain't gonna shoot itself!

I'm joking, of course. Congratulations on your achievement.

I found BOSIET more enjoyable because we were able to use an EBS

What I would have given for an EBS...

Even some nose clips would have been nice.

So this means we don't have to listen to you complain about your job anymore.... right???

 

[dave_the_nerd]

so basically it's a certificate for riding on boat?

...and knowing how not to die. Yes.

 

[Texashiker]

so basically it's a certificate for riding on boat?

Kinda.

You have to have X number of days experience to get an AB ticket. The one I got you have to have something like 240 days seatime.

Plus, you have to take a lifeboat class at a coast guard accredited school. The lifeboat class is a week long.

So this means we don't have to listen to you complain about your job anymore.... right???

Besides the long hours.
