I'm the rookie of the Commercial Fishing Vessel Exam Office
These are pretty neat units, I've seen them used.
(I still am on the paper inspection form)
You just enter the boat's data, size, gross tons, etc
and it tells you what is required for that boat.
When done you use the printer and give the skipper the hard copy.
Then you just download straight to the MSO (Marine Saftey Office) in Portland.
The units cost about $1000 each
I know some of the people directly involved in testing these units.
Maybe when I'm not a rookie, I'll get one. LOL
Love those techie toys!! :o)
