Towing / lic. ?'s

I just finished with the same nonsense last year. After submission if the toar i was issued " pilot of towing" .
I applied for a tug job and the company said " but it doesnt actually say 500 towing" .
I went in to the REC and amazingly enough got not just an answer but a sarcastic letter right from the commondant saying " obviously the towing endorsement applies to any tonnage for which he had quilifcations"
A convoluted way of saying the toar will fix your quandry.
Good luck

Mate/Pilot of Towing is a separate license from your 500 ton. You do not have a “500 towing”, you have a mate 500 ton and a “mate of towing”.
