Grant Skaggs, Navigation Systems


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.
