Good Morning,

I have a 3/M of Unlimited Tonnage Upon Oceans and  
Mate (pilot) of Towing Vessels Upon Oceans

I have to take the following Modules  
Q100 Rules of the Road  
011X1 Deck / Nav General and Deck Safety  
Q203 Deck Safety and Environmental Protection

A friend of mine only had to take Module 011X1 What is the difference in license or scope between our two tests? We both applied for Master 1600 and were approved to test.

Thanks

I have been 2/M on an ATB for 5 years and C/M for 2.5yrs, starting in June of 2015  
Can’t say for him, but I assume it has to do with the March 2014 regulation?

You should tell the evaluator you want to test under the old rules, which they should have automatically done.

What you posted is the difference between the new and old exams.
