inspection & Compliance Training

There are times when a Skipper must demonstrate knowledge of the requirements to operate vessels on navigable waterways. Knowing the rules and complying are mandatory.

The time to learn this is NOT while being boarded or inspected by an authority on the water!

Preparing yourself and your vessel for inspection and passing without a citation is the purpose of the Captain Mike’s inspection/compliance service.

Captain Mike will guide and see through the inspection, deficiency identification, resolution, and completion of making your Vessel compliant for its use. And most importantly, the understanding of regs and rules and the reasons they apply.

Call Captain Mike today and relax knowing you and your vessel will pass the muster of a “Courtesy Inspection” from any marine authority.
