THE REQUIREMENTS Antigua & Barbuda Department of Marine Services (ADOMS) recognizes that there has not previously been a facility whereby seafarers in Antigua and Barbuda can obtain the Boatmaster’s qualification. As a consequence, many personnel currently operating commercial vessels locally do not hold the qualification. Recognizing this problem the ADOMS will: permit existing personnel who are already employed in small commercial vessels to continue to work without a Boatmaster’s License until 31st December, 2014, providing they have at least 6 months’ experience and hold another qualification such as RYA Day Skipper, RYA Coastal Skipper or Yachtmaster for service in small commercial vessels.
