Mass Maritime Manned Model Course
Has anybody taken this? Is it worth the $5,000? This would be coming out of my pocket. Just curious to see if it's as good as they say it is.

I've heard the same.
Anyone with experience in the class on here?

No first hand experience, but the overview link looks interesting:

I took the class last summer. Excellent.
Came into the class w a couple decades of ship handling under my belt - MPSV captain amongst other stuff - and found it a great place to hone my skills.
In fact, in our class there were 3 x young mates who the instructors bunched together and then there was me and a Tangiers pilot who received more specialized training in a separate grouping.
I would recommend the course.
