Diamond Marine Services user here! Got all my paperwork for me everything went super smooth!!! I used them thanks to a video you posted a while back! Now I have my MMC!!!!!!!
I went to a "prestigious" school (chapman) and If it wasnt for this guys videos, I would have never passed. I wish I would have just did my school with him online, I just didnt know that was an option. He is a GREAT teacher and has a way of explaining stuff that I understood. I was lost on a few things. If you are thinking about doing this process, don't go to anyone but him. What school you went to for a few weeks is not gonna matter all that much which is what I hear people think about. Going to one school or another is not gonna land you a job over a different school because all the licenses are the same and don't even say what school you went to.
Great video. I love videos that are clear and concise. I HAVE to know what the name of that beat you used in your video though! It was just as nice as this video.
question, do I need a a captains license if im buying a 60ft yacht and only will be taking family and friends of no charge. no commercial use at all. in Florida as well
Here is a link to our Shop uscaptainstraining.com/shop/ The OUPV is $610 after shipping and the Master 100 is $810 after shipping. Diamond Marine Services is $300. If you set aside $2,000 TOTAL to get you Captain's License you should come in under budget. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns going forward. We are here to help,
How should I go about all this as someone with little to no experience and wants to start a modest trade route and captain a boat (I'm new here now sure if I'm in the right video but I'm very serious about this)
@@BroadwayDaUlf you can own a boat and go out on it often until you have 360 days on the water. Or, the best way is to get a job on a boat and work a lot to gain your sea service.
@@byrdgangbanga547 I highly recommend contacting diamondmarineservices.com/web/credentialconsulting/cc-detail They provide a phenomenal service and will help you get sorted out. Keep in mind that you will need 90 days of sea service in the last three years to qualify for a license.
2 questions. I live in Montana. Ive deck handed in AK . Can i take this online course or do i have to physically go to a port to take it? And dont you need creditable maritime hours from a outfitter to be signed off on?
@@MT_Maniac406 the entire course is completed online including the final examination. Your "sea service" can be recreational or commercial. Diamond Marine Services is a fantastic resource for the application side of things. I would start with the application process to make things go smoothly. diamondmarineservices.com/web/credentialconsulting/cc-detail
I want to become a Tug Boat captain in the future should I go to Marine Operations/ Marine Transportation college or just start out as a Deckhand im 22 and already have a Twic card
@@lordodium3872 my best advice is to get a job on a tugboat and work your way up. I would also contact Diamond Marine Services and get your Merchant Mariner Credential as soon as possible. Then you keep increasing the ratings and endorsements on your MMC. diamondmarineservices.com/web/credentialconsulting/cc-detail
@@cdc84 , the fastest way is to get a job on a boat as a deckhand in a climate that allows you to work all year round. This is a big hurdle for a lot of folks.
according to my history teacher, not only you got to have a college degree, you have to be on the top of the class, straight A's student maybe, if your not the top of the class, you just wasted 4 years of your life, people wants promotion, people want opportunity, people want top of the line potition, otherwise lot of people dont want to end up being a skipper of the gun boat, if you were fourtinately, you could retire at age of 60 years old, Getting a captain opportunity is hard and rare, you wont have a chance.
You will need your MMC credential (6pack) to obtain proper insurance and also for correct fishing license. Depending on the type of fishing you want to do. I run a part time inshore/nearshore charter fishing business in Northeast Florida. I love it and hope to go full time on my own.
You need an OUPV or Master Captain's License. I highly recommend contacting Diamond Marine Services before buying your course so you have a clear picture of the very best license for which you qualify.
This guys videos were substantial in helping me get my Credential, I highly recommend them. I was able to pass all my tests on the first try.

Well done Captain Neil!
Thanks Sam! I have my Drug Test this Friday and my Sea Service ready. I'll get them into my Diamond Marine portal by Friday. Thanks for the support!
Im ready!!! Im really ready
I need to speak with him on getting started. I'm ready to get my captain's license, and I mean it
Any updates?

@@Pacifictheory the beats are from Adobe stock, they have some bangers.

No, you do not. The only entity that may require a Captain's License is your insurance company.
I would like to get my Captain's licenses
The limitations offshore sailing pale in comparison to RYA certifications recognized by the U.S. even with the commercial certification.
Dude! Awesome video!!
Thanks Dave!
Curious what was your cost? Im not ready yet but plan to in the future.

@@uscaptainstraining I think I'll start with finding a job on a boat thx!
@BroadwayDaUlf that's the way to go!
I did 10 years as a deckhand/lead man where do I go to find out my sea time?

What's the cost for the US captain license program and USCG application. Also location
I would also like to know the answer to this question! Are we talking hundreds, thousands? For some of us cost is a factor.

All documentation, fees and rest of the future payments. How much ? Any idea from ... to... just to estimate
@@deathdancerr budget about $1,800 all in, including consulting with Diamond Marine Services.
@uscaptainstraining this is great and payable
how to get sea time tho? i have no boat or friend with boat

@@uscaptainstraining good to know, thank you!
Do you think you could have used your whiteboard more Effectively?
How to be less effective can one be
Turned off
Which license ???
@@alireza3474 Pretty much any USCG license. Start with the app and then take the course while you wait for the USCG to look at your application.

I've been saying I want mine for years. Maybe it's my time.
When does a drug test come into the equation?
During the application part of the process. It is part of the application.
Thank you
Glad to help!

The hardest part is sea time especially living in Ohio
