Captain's License in Wyoming: what to know

3 captain's license providers serve Wyoming. A captain's license is a U.S. Coast Guard credential — issued federally, not by individual states — so you earn the OUPV (“Six-Pack”) or Master license through a USCG-approved course and exam.

A USCG captain's license lets you carry paying passengers. The OUPV (“Six-Pack”) covers up to six passengers, while a Master license scales to larger vessels and crews.

These are the highest-value courses on the site: they take real study time, cost more, and lead to paid work, so choosing an accredited, well-reviewed provider matters.

Before enrolling, check Wyoming's boating license requirements and confirm any course is accepted by the state. BoatingClasses.com is an independent directory — always verify current rules with Wyoming's official boating agency.
