Renewal 115 Days!

**Captmad** · February 17th, 2009, 01:57 AM

Greetings,
Just received my license 115 days after depositing application renewal package with local REC. There was no further clarifications required just a renewal. Our CG says the average time for processing is 89 days as of February 01.
Do you think things have slowed more??

BTW: I do not like my license being refered to as a credential. Remember guys your license is yours and can only be taken through legal means. A credential can be taken upon whim by any CG know nothing.

Would like to point out I am one of our CG biggest supporters in regards to their real mission, SAR. In regards to civilian mariner licensing, documentation and inspecting they leave much to be desired.

I shall remain Captmad because I still have to deal with inspectors that do not have any real seatime!

I work in a civilian commercial enviornment and have yet to find one inspector that shares that experience. Meaning the inspectors do not understand what we must achieve on a daily basis.
