T&T: T&T Captains Classes

[Bill Allen]

I've had my ticket for 15 years (50 ton) in fifteen years never been called 
(knock on wood). That said the drug test serves it's purpose, as a child of 
the sixities, I think although I don't always remember that time, it 
totally stops me from even considering doing anything off the boat. On the 
boat I won't even do a beer. Of course even driving your car is a 
consideration when you have a beer or three for dinner. Bill
