Mission Statement
- The MMCA was established to obtain and maintain the following principles:
  • Increase the professionalism and knowledge of Captain's.
  • Maintain the highest standards of the professional Captain by which all Captains' are judged.
  • Insure the integrity and standing of our chosen profession.
  • Become the main liaison between local professional Captain's and the United States Coast Guard.
  • Promote civilian boating safety.
  • Assist ALL mariners in time of need.
  • Be actively involved in all issues and regulations effecting professional captains.
  • Set the highest standard that all incoming Captain's will wish to obtain.
  • Reduce the number of "paper Captain's" by insuring that employers demand the skill and quality of our MMCA Captains.
  • Insure the continuing education of all professional Captain's
  • To set aside a volunteer "Task Force" to assist Merchant Marine families in times of disasters such as hurricanes and floods.


Mission Objective - We as a group of professional Captain's have become aware of some major issues facing our profession. We have established the MMCA to rectify those issues and to reach out to the public in an effort to promote boating safety. We intend on setting the standard by which all Captains are judged.


Passengers don't need to wonder anymore about the safety record of the Captain they are riding with, just look for the patch.

When you see a Captain wearing the patches below you can feel reassured that they are a skilled, professional Captain with a clean safety record.

Only worn by the Best of The Best
