    Well I've finally done it!!!

    I bit the bullet and signed up to do my MCA 3000 gt chief mate & MEOL.
    It's costing a pretty sum but in the past it was more a case of finding the time. I have now made the time so am officially a full time student until the end of March.

    As I'm a student now maybe I should stop washing and eat cold pizza and corn flakes?????

    3000 gt Master here I come!!!!

    You can splurge with a can of hormel chili and some frito's , and if you do a little spot job of washing someones boat ........ maybe a little cheese and onions on top...... Good luck on the studying and hope you get back on the waterways soon!!!
