Well Captains'........ have you heard about the new regulation and upcoming changes for your charter captains licenses? We had the Toledo Coast Guard at the conference last week. They encouraged anyone within 1 1/2 years of their Merchant Mariners license renewal to get their processes started asap.
Some REC's will be closing their licensing processes and many who went to certain places will in the near future have to go to a national center. One national center they told us about happened to be in WV!
Combine that with REC's taking our finger prints.......seems they do not trust police departments who took them before and the new Twic identity cards which will definately cost us more $$$.....it certainly doesn't get any easier. You can read more about the new Twic at:

If you'd like to speak to Captain Art to learn more about the regs you can visit him on his website at http://www.LakeErieCaptain.com
Until then........tight lines and tighter wallets! Captain Art
