I went to Eatons Neck as a BM2, made BM1 and got out to pursue a career in Atlanta as a Police Officer, which I did and retired BUT if I could do it over, I would have stayed in. I loved the Coast Guard and New York was great.

Glad to see you are enjoying it and looking ahead. My career was cut short do to an accident but I too enjoyed the service in the USCG way back in the 70's. I went to boot in Alameda Ca. then Yorktown for MK school then ended up in Texas where I became a boarding officer and stood OOD watch before leaving. As a unit we had some very proud moments and I also had some personal proud moments that I can reflect back on and you will too.

if you drop a stern anchor out, you should stop from spinning .. and the spining is whats the problem here.. back years ago in ohio river pontoon boat i had two river anchors on each end of boat. drop front anchor, let out a shit load of road, then drop stern anchor and then take up front anchor rode to tighten up all slack.. caint you do this with a big boat too... to prevent spinning of the boat??????

hey bud, becoming a merchant mariner or joining the coast guard at 32. What path would you take? This channel inspired me

@WickedSalty 5 ай бұрын

@@AnalyzeSportsStudio not much knowledge with merchant mariner but the merchant marines is regimented, uscg is active duty military. Similar but different, lots of benefits in the uscg and lots of different job opportunities which can be shifted to your needs. Coast guard is a good place to be, definitely worth a shot.

@@AnalyzeSportsStudio they make you wear the issued boots at bootcamp but you can wear whatever black composite toe ones in the fleet, boot camp is lenient on wearing your own running shoes now during pt rather than only the issued ones

Hey Wes, you're a Yamaha outboard technician, right? How hard was it to become one? Would you recommend it as a job for a middle aged man that lives in a boat? I'm looking to get out of the transportation industry after nearly 3 decades. Too much time away from the water. Good to see you still going sailing. Thanks for your work with the Coast Guard. All the amateur boaters are great job security 🤣👍🏻

@WickedSalty 5 ай бұрын

@@granularSodacan it would be easy, you just need to find a job where they service yamahas and have Yamaha technicians. They would be the ones to send you to Yamaha school could talk it out with them. I worked for freedom boat club in the yard that’s who sent me, he was willing to send me to as many classes as I could attend. School for each cert is around a week long, some can be challenging, drive train was but others I’d assume easier. I’d guess boat yards in general send their guys to Yamaha school as well.

Is this only if you go in undecided? What if you sign up for a particular profession from the start?

@WickedSalty 6 ай бұрын

If you go undecided you leave boot camp as a non rate where you take time at your first unit assigned deciding on what rate(job) you want to go. If you sign for particular rate(job/profession) you go straight to A-school after boot camp to do that job at your first unit. Only some rates offer boot to A-school at certain times based off coast guards needs.

Very cool. I grew up a few streets from the Whitestone bridge in Queens as you head towards the city in the East river. My brothers and I had a few motor boats over the years and yea the traffic on the East river is insane and dangerous. Massive wakes.
