    It's not a license, it just shows you're in a USCG approved random drug testing program. This allows you to be a mate...paid/tipped crew on a charter/tour boat.

    That is interesting. I have only fished on a couple of freshwater charters, with the bulk being offshore ocean charters. I am surprised that there is random drug testing for mates. I could see this for captains where you are in control of the vessel, but surprising for mates.

    This ensures to the USCG and customers on a charter vessel that you have a safe and confident crew taking care of YOU for the day. The captain is ultimately responsible for you and a good first mate assists with everything o the boat. How would like to have a mate that could be hooked on an illegal substance and could possibly have an affect on the safely of your day.
    I use Maritime Consortium and its $65 a year. Find it online.
