Go Back to School
Bill, I obtained my CG 50 Ton license with sail and towing endorsement last year. Getting the old "6PAC" doesn't make sense any more since to get the upgraded license is not much more effort. I bought a packaged course with video and was told you will struggle unless you go to a school. I think it is very true, without the school I would have never passed. The test is very intense and on the rules of the road section you must get 90% to pass the test. I went to an excellent school in Chicago, Saturday-Tuesday and then they give the test right at the school. If you are interested in more information, e-mail me at wrfsail45@aol.com. I am sure there probably other schools in your area, but if you are serious, that is the way to go.
