The US does not issue a Seaman's Book only Seaman's Papers via the United States Coast Guard. This is after you have completed the application, submitted sea time, a physical exam, drug test, character reference letters AND pass the exam for a captain's license. If you are working on a yacht and need a Seaman's Book, go to the flag country of the yacht (or vessel) and/or look for an application online. I have been researching this for many months and I am captain of a 145' BVI flag vessel. I may be able to get the South African crew Seaman's Books but the British will not issue to US citizens and a few other countries. If someone finds me wrong on this, please reply. Captain L. Tritch, USCG 1600 Ton Master/Oceans, currently Egypt.
