***PURCHASES ARE NON-REFUNDABLE***

If less than a three-week notice is given, a $250.00 late notice charge will be applied (in addition to the funds already given).
$1,000 – OUPV
$500 – ROUPV
$300 – Renewal

***** Need Flexible Scheduling because the dates above don’t work with you? Give me a call so we can set up personal private training to accommodate to your schedule! This is not an uncommon practice and highly utilized among your fellow Captains*****

———————————————

OUPV – 6 Pack (This course will cover a variety of credentials and will be dependent on what kind of sea-service time you qualify for) (8-Day Course which consists of 7 days studying/class-time and 1 day of testing).

  • Near Coastal (up to 100 miles off-shore)
  • Great Lakes and Western Rivers/Inland
  • Inland and Western Rivers


ROUPV 6-Pack (Restricted to MN northern navigable lakes ONLY) – (4-Day Course)

  • Please note that this will only be good for an endorsement as Operator of Uninspected Passenger Vessels of less than 100 GRT upon Inland waters restricted to Lake of the Woods, Rainy River, Rainy Lake, Kabetogama Lake, Namakan Lake, Sand Point Lake, and Crane Lake of Minnesota. This will not cover anything else, such as MN Inland lakes, Great Lakes, or Mississippi.
  • If you need either of those available in your credentials you will need to take an OUPV class instead.
