What jobs are available to a licensed captain?
A. This answer largely depends on your status in life and your plans for the future. There are jobs as Harbor Tender Operators, River and Lake Tour Boat Captains, Charter Fishing, Sailboat Charters and Delivery Captains. The USCG requires a Captains license for anyone taking out passengers for “compensation”. A OUPV (6 pack) license is for 6 or less passengers on an un-inspected vessel. A Masters license is required for 6 passengers or more.
