[ve-l] Register for the "I Want A VSC" tool.

[Robert Miller]

Hello Tricia,

There were 2 letters sent to every squadron in February explaining the
Inflatable Life Jacket Loaner Program. The second letter said "please watch
our Vessel Examiner web-site for more information as it becomes available."
Before we can forecast shipping dates we need enough information from the
Coast Guard and the supplier. Plus we have to have determined the shipping
process, considering they are hazardous material due to the CO2 cartridges.
Then we have to find the funding source for shipping them. The reason you
have heard nothing further about the life jackets is don't have it all
settled yet and we do not want to set expectations that we will not be able
deliver on. I'm sorry we don't have better information than that but that is
where we are.

Best regards,

R/C Bob Miller

Could you please respond to the program where VSEs are supposed to receive
Inflatable Life Jackets? We are into the year and have not heard anything
further about these. Not sure how to respond to questions from VSEs.

To all Vessel Examiners:

Are you aware of the "I Want a VSC" tool at http://safetyseal.net/GetVSC/
where thousands of visitors are looking for a Vessel Safety Check each
month? Go there and enter your ZIP Code and see who pops up. If you don't,
then you need to sign up. You will also find a link to this site on the USPS
VSC Home Page which reads "Click Here to Have Your Boat Checked"

The "I Want a VSC" system is a volunteer system and volunteers must sign up
themselves. 

The sign-up is on the National V Departments Members side of the site at
http://safetyseal.net/GetVSC/EnterNewExaminer.asp or you can also get there
from the USPS VSC Home page where is says "Register for the Online VE
Locator" on the right hand menu.


Please help spread the word to other examiners in your area too.

And a note to currently listed volunteers. If you change your email address
move to a different ZIP Code or drop out from being a vessel examiner,
please send an email to webmaster at safetyseal.net to remove you from the I
Want a VSC system.
