USCG-MASTER1600-L3.2

Required training: firefighting, radar and the STCW overlap

USCG-MASTER1600-M3 · Application, training and examination · USCG-MASTER1600-M3-A Age and general requirements, firefighting and radar, the 500/1,600 GRT exam modules and renewal. 4 lessons.

The national 500/1,600 GRT ticket itself asks for surprisingly little training: **Basic and Advanced Firefighting**, first aid and CPR. Radar, ARPA, ECDIS and the rest come with **manning rules and STCW**.

AI-drafted catalogue content pending SME review. The national ticket is measured in GRT while the STCW endorsement that normally accompanies it is measured in GT, and NMC checklist wording (notably recency) currently differs from 46 CFR 11.201; verify with the National Maritime Center and the current checklist before applying.
