Upon successful completion of the RFPNW program, seamen will be issued an interim certificate “Rating Forming Part of a Navigational Watch – Lookout Duties Only.” This will allow the OS or AB to independently stand lookout watches while they complete the required RFPNW assessments. When company sponsored, employees can reduce the sea-time requirement to become a full RFPNW from 6 months to 2 months.
