Hi, I am attempting to upgrade my OUPV to a 25 ton Masters with a commercial assistance towing endorsement. I have already submitted all of my paperwork and sea service forms and thankfully I have just received the notice below:

"Your application for this credential was approved for applicant testing on July 11, 2014. Prior to issuance you will be required to pass the following examinations: DECK GENERAL (70%), and DECK GENERAL + DECK SAFETY & ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION (70%). You will receive a letter from the National Maritime Center detailing the exam procedures."

Also I would like to thoroughly read whatever books or manuals the coast guard makes available in addition to taking practice tests. Does anyone know which publicly available resources I should get and focus on to prepare?
TIA,
John

Good day,

The following link will give you an overview of the material you need to study for: http://www.uscgexam.com/files/CFR_Subjects_for_Deck_Licenses.pdf

As far as study guides I recommend Murphy's Deck Officer Guides.

Good luck.
