Here's an email I received from Gary. he's organizing several courses, at what appears to be pretty good pricing. Any questions, please contact him at the link provided.

Mr Worrall, Thanks for taking the time to return my call. Here is a listing of the courses and dates for the USCG Captain courses. If you or anyone else has questions about the topic please call me. I work closely with the USCG to get my students through the process with as little problems as possible. Also our prices and course quality beats my out of state competitors by considerable margin.

Anyone guiding on federal waters needs a USCG "Captains" License. Here is an alternative to the more expensive out of state courses. Explorer's Guide is offering several different courses to meet your needs. These are USCG approved and include all course materials and exams.

The full OUPV is for the Great Lakes, Inland waters, and near coastal. Cost is $595 and covers 56-hrs of classes over two long weekends starting on Thursday evening.

The Limited and Restricted OUPV is for the Winnebago System, Rock River, and pools on the Western Rivers such as Mississippi. Cost is $250/$295 over a three day weekend.

Very good course and well worth the time and cash.

Captain Bob Parker will be also doing a class this winter.

I just talked to him last week and he finished up a class here in Waukesha county. He is now teaching a Master Class for the next few weeks.

I will forward the class info when I get it from him or you could call him direct at 262-691-9250.

This is not ment to take away from Steve's post. Just to offer more dates and areas for all to choose from.

I took the class last Febuary with Capt. Bob and Capt. Greg.

Believe me, it's not easy to get a captians license. It takes dedication and determination. I am proud to be a captian.
