    Well that is the thing. No piece of paper can really make someone a Captain. If the question is- Would you trade your life so that a passenger or crew may live, and you can't answer "Yes" and mean it, you don't need to apply...

    Yea expect your insurance premium to increase significantly if you want to run charters. Mine went from just under $400 a year to about $1300/year for 500k liability and $30k agreed value on my boat. This is through Charter Lakes

    Well, there's that but as Captain you also get to keel haul the crew when needed. Kinda balances things out a lttle.

    I went through a different insurance provider and did not see an increase like that. I had charter lakes look for me but could not match.
