Yep, got it!! I am officially a Merchant Mariner.
I have received the ratings of Operator of Uninspected Passenger Vessels... that means I can legally take up to 6 paying passengers aboard my boat for day sails, evening sunset cruises, as opposed to morning sunset cruises, and such. Actually, I can have paying passengers aboard for as long as I can put up with folks invading my private domain. But only Inland Waters, which is basically anywhere not in the ocean, but that includes all of Puget Sound as fair game for me and any charters.
Additionally, I received the ratings of Ordinary Seaman, Wiper, and Stewards Department.
Now I will get the next upgrade to Master 100 ton, Towing and Sailing endorsements when I head north out of here in May. About the time I get to Alaska I will have met the requirements to upgrade to Near Coastal Waters, meaning up to 100 miles into the oceans.
It will help as I will try to get some extra toy money by doing small evening or day sails and maybe a delivery of two a year. The deliveries are where the big bucks are. A few grand for a couple of weeks a few times a year? I can do that.
