licences ???

i was planning buying a boat then i found out i need to have a licence. the thing is in europe (germany) it costs 2000+ euros for one. is it possible to make your licence in another country (us, canada) where it is a lot cheaper or must your licence be issued in your country of residence. from what ive read on the net with the difference in prices i could go on a really good holiday sit my test and still have money over. the licence i am looking for is for open sea.

thanx for any advice

You need to be a US citizen to get a captians licence in the states. On top of that their are time at sea requirements as well as a test. I took my captians test just over 20 years ago, it wasn't easy (about a 15% pass rate at the time), not sure if it's any easier today.

Wow, 2000+ euros for a licence. I guess all those "free" services aren't really free after all.
