Like the 6 Pack, this is an entry level license. This course is an add-on to Sea School’s OUPV (6-Pack) course. If you do not already have your OUPV license, you will need to start there as it is the first part of this course.

You do not have to get your OUPV license but you will have to complete that course and then go on to this course. After you have successfully completed both courses and tests, you may then apply for your Master 25, 50 or 100 GRT license.
If you already have your OUPV license, the Upgrade process from OUPV to MASTER is quite straightforward.
Requirements for this upgrade license are additional sea time, physical, and drug screen along with the license application from the Coast Guard.
Your next step is to take a tough USCG exam at the Regional Exam Center near you or you can complete our Upgrade Course and test in lieu of that CG exam.
Upon successful completion, a Certificate of Completion/Diploma will be issued that must be presented to the Coast Guard within one (1) year of the issue date on the certificate along with the rest of your application so that your Master License may be issued.
