No - you have to take an entry level course to satisfy the state of WA.  :chuckle: Just kidding

My understanding was that any superior course, classification, Identification would be sufficient.

I believe the laminated copy needs to be 4 foot by 6 foot to make extremely convenient to keep on your person....

Let me know, I was wondering if my 100 ton (OUPV 6 pack) or passenger skippers license would suffice.
My 9 and 12 year old girl got theirs last year.  I think that every person who operates a boat should be required to get a card.  The vast majority of folks on the water should not be there in the first place.

I got mine. It was pretty easy.  Also a benefit to getting it is that my insurance company gave me a discount for having one.  There are different ways to take test.  Some internet test vary in costs.  There are two cheaper versions on the list.  Check out Wa State Park and Recreation Site at

Wild Turkey, Walleyes, Whitetails and Wapiti..These are a few of my favorite things!!
