is a floating dredge a boat????

did you know if you use a boat for work regardless of length you need a skippers ticket?

if the answer is yes to question one , then you will need a skippers ticket to operate your dredge

Nah, so long as my submarine is under a certain length and does not exceed 7 knots.

It will just be for pleasure. I plan on getting drunk and doing donuts near those pesky kayakers.

I had a submarine it was yellow it was in the 60s and everyone lived on board. we had a band and lots of good stuff to smoke
I wasn't allowed up the buller as it was nuclear powered , I didn't bother with the doughnuts on the kayakers I just nucked them

sad to say the drinking and getting drunk seems to be a thing of the past although smoke still gets in my eyes

cheers from kiwikeith
