Yeah, especially with those f***n nautical lights  :( :-\ If you get something wrong, examiner boots you out and tells you to study more. Today last session on fire fighting, tomorrow morning practice and test on the boat, and Thursday afternoon the dreaded face to face exam. All the same the course is very interesting.

malvizzu, relax xbin..... do not be worried as the examiner will help you, even if you get it wrong, he'll simply tell you to try again... you'll come out of the exam and you'll tell us we were right.

STOP PRESS  ;D ;D ;D Basic Seamanship Course finally over and all the forum members passed with flying colours - Fortuna, Busumark, Baghira, Freediver, Malvizzu. The evening was very tense and everyone had crumps in his stomach. Freediver was first and I was second, so it was good to get it over. Fortuna was third from last so it was more tense for him and annoying having to wait a long time. Afterwords we all went for a beer (i drank Shandy though  :D) I was asked 6 lights, 6 flags, 3 knots, 3 boat manouvers, distress signals, safety procedure when refuelling, cardinal, lateral, safety, isolated and special marks... Phew!!!!! At least we can now all relax  ;D After work I'll be off to Petecraft to check on the work of my boat. Baghira don't forget that photo  ;)

Hi Shaftbomb - hopefully soon. Today after work I will be going to Petecraft. Hull and deck are ready and mounted together. They were doing the seats and probably done the console as well. Did not have much time to pay more frequent visits because of the course. The trailer is ready galvanized as well and will collect next week. Will keep you posted.

The certificates are ready guys.
I collected mine yesterday from villa portelli till 4:30pm (if i remember well)
You have to present your id card to colect.
Then i went to maritime, took also 2 photos and paid LM10.
Will collect my license next week. :-*
Title: Re: Basic Seamanship course
Post by: malvizzu on May 14, 2010, 11:51:13 CET
Thanks Baghira. I phoned midway this week and told me to phone again next week cause they weren't ready.
Title: Re: Basic Seamanship course
Post by: givella on December 19, 2010, 20:32:52 CET
Can anyone tell me were are the Maritime offices so that I can apply for the license. Do they need a copy of the basic seamanship certificate or just show them the original?
Title: Re: Basic Seamanship course
Post by: robby017 on December 20, 2010, 11:48:40 CET
they will take the original, so better keep a copy for yourself..... their offices are further in from valletta waterfront.... xatt l ghasara ta l gheneb if im not mistaken.
Title: Re: Basic Seamanship course
Post by: givella on December 26, 2010, 14:56:29 CET
Thanks, Robby017.
Went there and applied for the license. You were right, they wanted the original. It was useless urguing with them abou it. It was either a take it or levae it situation.
For me this is the first time I had to serander an original certificate. Nobody has ever demanded an original of a GCE, City & guildts, music,etc...
Only one thing to say .... Pajjiz tal Mickey Mouse.

i don't agree with you, because at the end of the day, you know they are providing you with the certificate to obtain your licence..... having the licence is a certificate in itself.
Title: Re: Basic Seamanship course
Post by: shanook on December 26, 2010, 18:15:15 CET
totally disagree rob. that certificate belongs to the individual and they should never take it away from you. I am not sure but if feels like they are doing an illegal thing to ask and keep in their possession an original certificate. they should keep a copy after they see the original or else accept one with a lawyer's stamp that it is a 'true copy of original'
givella is right to say'pajjiz tal mickey mouse with due respect to Walt Disney.
