Surfkaster,

I think it depends on your location for one thing. You don't want to travel a looong way. Make sure it a a CG approved class that lets you take the test at the school so you don't have to go into Commercial St in Boston. This alone is a great reason to spend the dough on a class for going into town isn't fun at least for me.

Like many on this post went to NE Maritime. They were fine and the guy who taught most of my class was an older guynamed Charlie and he ran the class very well. You couldn't go wrong with the MMA one and that class is probably the best you'll find. Not sure who teaches the class but am guessing that they have more coffee time on the water than most. So those would be my 2 choices if I were to do it again.
