Boats for Hire?
I have a USCG boating certificate which allows me to drive boats, my question is can I drive a boat for hire without a captain’s license? I’d be starting my own company, just trying to get a feel for rules and regulations, anything will help, thanks!

If you don't have a USCG "captains" license, called a 6-pack, no you can't. The boating certificate, which is not required, just shows you are capable on paper to operate a boat. To obtain a captains license you must take a USCG approved course, have a physical and show that you have a minimum 360 days experience on the water.

How about asking the USCG?

If asking a--holes on YA is your first course of action then you don't have enough gumption to star any business.
