Interesting wording in this.

Skill Requirements:

Education: Completion of high school

Credentials (certificates, licences, memberships, courses, etc.): Not required

Other Information:Must have certification in Marine engineer.

So I guess our Certification system doesn't count for much in Kingston, eh?

ALL passenger vessels over 75 Kw, (100 bhp), need Certified Engineers. From MPR, part II

219. (1) A passenger-carrying vessel that is engaged on a voyage referred to in column 1 of the table to this subsection and that has a propulsive power within a range set out in column 2 shall have on board, and its authorized representative shall employ, for each certificate referred to in column 3 that corresponds to that voyage and range, one person who holds, at a minimum, that certificate in the category appropriate to the vessel’s propulsion type.

TABLE

ENGINEER CERTIFICATES — PASSENGER-CARRYING VESSELS

Column 1 Column 2 Column 3
Item Voyage Propulsive Power (kW) Certificates
1. Unlimited voyage or, if the vessel is not operating only between Canadian ports, near coastal voyage, Class 1 (a) 75 to 3 000 (a) Second-class and Third-class
(b) more than 3 000 (b) First-class and Second-class

2. Near coastal voyage, Class 1, if operating only between Canadian ports (a) 75 to 4 000 (a) Second-class
(b) more than 4 000 (b) First-class and Second-class

3. Near coastal voyage, Class 2 (a) 75 to 999 (a) Fourth-class
(b) 1 000 to 3 999 (b) Third-class
(c) 4 000 to 7 000 (c) Second-class
(d) more than 7 000 (d) First-class and Second-class

4. Limited near coastal voyage, Class 2 or sheltered waters voyage (a) 75 to 749 (a) Small Vessel Machinery Operator
(b) 750 to 1 499 (b) subject to subsection (2), Fourth-class
(c) 1 500 to 2 999 (c) Third-class
(d) 3 000 to 7 000 (d) Second-class
(e) more than 7 000 (e) First-class and Third-class

(2) A passenger-carrying vessel that has a propulsive power of at least 750 kW but not more than 1 499 kW and that is engaged on a limited near coastal voyage, Class 2 or a sheltered waters voyage, of less than 6 hours’ duration, may have on board and its authorized representative may employ, a person who holds a Small Vessel Machinery Operator certificate, instead of the engineer required by paragraph (b) of column 3 of item 4 of the table to subsection (1), if

(a) the vessel has a propulsion system comprised of at least two independent engines with respect to their control and fuel systems and that duplication allows for continued propulsion and steering should one engine fail;

(b) the propulsion system is controlled from the bridge and has all the necessary gauges, alarms and engine and emergency controls;

(c) continuous radio contact is maintained with the home base;

(d) the authorized representative provides

(i) a list of pre-departure procedures and verifications, which procedures and verifications shall be carried out by the small vessel machinery operator before each departure, and

(ii) a maintenance schedule meeting the recommendations of the manufacturer of the main engines which maintenance shall be carried out by

(A) an engineer who holds at least a Fourth-class Engineer certificate, or

(B) a service firm accredited by the manufacturer of the main engines with which the authorized representative has entered into a maintenance contract; and

(e) records of the pre-departure procedures are readily available, for inspection by a marine safety inspector, on board the vessel or, if the vessel does not travel more than five nautical miles from its home port, readily available in its home port.

It should be noted that for any position on a Canadian vessel which needs a Certificate of Competence, that CoC must be Canadian. Only qualified persons, as defined in the Immigration and Citizenship Act may hold a Canadian Certificate of Competence, and a Qualified Person defined in that Act is a Canadian Citizen or Permanent Resident. I'm afraid Romanians or any other citizen who is not Canadian cannot hold a Canadian Certificate of Competence.

Details of the vessel are in the public domain at http://wwwapps.tc.gc.ca/Saf-Sec-Sur/4/v ... pid=395989

At 468 Kw, up to 25 miles from shore, (NC2 voyage), she needs 4th Class Motor. However, if the NC2 voyage is limited, or if the voyage is in sheltered waters, she can get by with SVMO if all the conditions of MPR 219 (2) are met. "Sheltered Waters" are defined in the Vessel Certificates Regulations, Schedule 1
