I received no official reports in
February but I expect Aids to Navigation Verifiers to be very active in March.
Peter Ubillos, who heads Navigation
Systems for Division 7 W, will offer a 6-hour ATON Verification program at a
division meeting on April 14. Anyone
already certified or seeking certification should attend to get an update and
see what’s going on in Navigation
Systems. Put this date aside and I will
provide further information as soon as I get it.
We have a new contact at the Aid
to Navigation Team (ANT) in St. Petersburg.
His name is Daniel Hutchinson and his email address is Daniel.j.hutchinson@uscg.mil. Starting now, all our 7054 forms will be sent
to him. Congratulations to Daniel. I’m
sure all of the verifiers at Flotilla 96 are looking forward to working with
him.
