​Maritime Museum Offering Captain’s License Training

Training is ideal for operators of inspected and uninspected vessels
KINGSTON, N.Y. – Hudson River Maritime Museum will offer a captain’s license course at the Wooden Boat School beginning in March 2022. The course is for six-pack through 100 ton master and is ideal for those who are uncertified or for people seeking to refresh their skills in navigation, chart plotting, rules of the road, and safety and regulations. It is the highest level license and is required for operators of both inspected and uninspected vessels. The credential can serve as proof of experience and may reduce insurance costs.

The course is offered through True North Maritime Academy and will be facilitated by Captain Ken Roberts. The cost is $1,180 and registration deadline is Tuesday, March 1, 2022. Sessions take place March 18-April 3, 2022 in-person at the HRMM Wooden Boat School located at 50 Rondout Landing in Kingston. Sessions will provide training and testing requirements to apply for a US Coast Guard License. True North Maritime Academy facilitates boating certifications for all levels of experience, from the recreational beginner to the commercial captain. 

Captain Ken Roberts is a USCG Licensed Captain (100 ton) and has been a USCG-certified instructor since 2014. He has instructed over 400 students. Captain Roberts has extensive experience with large and small vessels and served as a delivery captain for vessels from 30' to 130'.

Find more information online at www.hrmm.org/maritime-training or call 845-338-0071. People who have questions are encouraged to contact Becky Sellinger, Wooden Boat School Manager & Instructor, at [email protected].
