It’s hit or miss. A couple years ago Signet wanted to do a trip from Pascagoula to Mexico and the local USCG wouldn’t let them without running three watches. They tried saying they were going to Brownsville first and doing “two voyages” but the USCG wouldn’t buy it. The guys I talked to there were pissed because they thought that meant having 9 people onboard and the boats aren’t that big. No one believed me when I said you only needed 6 people to run three watches…
