[QUOTE=MateChristine;59939]Hi, I recently had a friend ask about his new [U]1600t Near Coastal Mate’s license[/U].
He wanted to know [U]how far offshore he could sail and if he could sail on international voyages[/U]. I’ve always sailed deep sea on an unlimited license, so i’m at a bit of loss. The best answer I could find came from the Master of Towing Vessel Association blog, which says within 200nm is “near coastal”.
Any thoughts?
Thanks![/QUOTE]
It’s up to the country whose waters you are in.
