Masters lic question

[Capt. Art]

I just received the 50 Ton Masters Certificate but it's 8.5" by 11". Do they issue anything else I can carry in my wallet? Maybe something more like a drivers lic size? This certificate says not to fold it?

The simple answer is that is all you get. I put mine in a water proof carrier and carry it aboard any boat I am workin on.

Frame it & hang it in the wheelhouse.

If you want a copy for your wallet I'd talk to Kinko's or some outfit like that. I'm sure they could make a wallet-sized copy and even laminate it. Wouldn't be valid though.

I always put mine in a plastic sheet protector and then folded it so it would fit in a bank bag. When I was working it was posted under glass for the coasties to see; no-one ever complained.

You fold money don't you???

I do the same as Ed (Hello Ed!). I have a small 3 ring binder with plastic page protectors that I carry copies of my License, random drug testing, MROP, and any other certificates. I also carry phone numbers of marinas and services that are in the waters that I'll be operating in. Also included in the binder are incident forms that can be filled out in case of any incident that may need to be documented.
