So I ended up taking the TowBoat US online course for free even though Im not a member
It was cheaper to get the anchor added to my NYS drivers license than to pay for 2 laminated cards
I did the license request as soon as I completed the course and it came in the mail in a little over a week
I printed a copy of the completion certificate and put that in a zip lock in my boat back pack and downloaded it my cell phone as well

Did DMV accept the laminated card, or do they want the certificate?

When I completed the course there was a link to get an updated license with an anchor on it and that was a few bucks cheaper than paying for 2 laminated cards
At least I'm enjoyin' the ride.....

I did not have to give them either

Okay, I took the course again a few years ago, and no such link. I'll try to dig up the certificate.
Thanks.

Once you find the certificate, midway down page 3 of this thread poorrichard posted a link
Thanks. I'll start looking for the certificate. My DL is coming up for renewal soon.

As an FYI I just looked at my certificate and realize its actually a temp good for 90 days so you got no choice but to either by the laminated cards for $15 or get license stamp for $13 🤦♂️🤷♂️😳
Thanks. My class was CG Aux. Hopefully the certificate wasn't temporary, but I'll have to dig it up and see what it says.
Fun never ends, does it? 🙄

Help my dumb @$$ out here. If the course is good for life, why does the certificate have an expiration date? Or does a permanent one come in the mail later?

AVENGER-no dumb questions, always glad to assist
Its a temporary certification (should be a white piece of paper signed by your instructor). NY State charges a $10 fee for a permanent certification if you are 18 yrs or older. Its a one time fee and you will be contacted via the e-mail address that you provided when you registered for the class. Once the $10 fee is paid. You will be mailed your permanent certification. You can also add your safe boating certificate to your drivers license. DMV places a blue anchor on the upper right side of your license.
The fee request will happen once your instructor has submitted all class files and paperwork
The permanent certification is currently valid for a lifetime. The temporary is valed for 90 days
The temporary CANNOT be replaced. Take a photo of it and keep it in your phone
I am doing a few more classes. If anyone needs a Safe Boating Class, please PM me for
my teaching schedule.
