FOR PROFESSIONAL MARINERS
... Getting your OUPV (Six-Pack) and Master 100 Ton license is an important step in
earning industry-wide distinction as a maritime professional, and for many pursuits afloat, is also a legal requirement.
These courses prepare you for the appropriate USCG examinations, and includes all study materials, supplies, and charts.
FOR
RECREATIONAL BOATERS ... Remember the investment you've made in your boat? Many
new boaters don't give their own preparation much thought, though, and are typically ill-equipped to operate their new boat
safely and prudently. And even seasoned boaters often step up into a vessel beyond their experience. When that's
the case, you can bet that trouble isn't lurking far behind. Give yourself and your crew the confidence and peace of
mind that comes with professional instruction. In the long run, the benefits of these courses are immeasurable - you'll
learn a lot, you'll develop a new awareness on the water, and likely even start some lifelong friendships. Come aboard!

"We're all a lot smarter about being on the water than we were before CAPT Anderson entered our lives. Sometimes
I wish I'd entered into these pursuits earlier in life, like flying and sailing, but family and responsibilities and jobs
and my own self-imposed boundaries got in the way. Now is my time." Dave Moorehead, retired, Onalaska
