I know they are not close to your neighborhood, but I figured I would mention it for the benefit of the guy's up North. I went through Capt Bill at the Nautical School, Nauticalschool.com He is based in NY, but does a class in Waltham Ma every year, this year it is May 3-11 (He does it in 9 straight days, all day on the weekends, amd nights during the week. 4 tests on the last day. He is really funny and everyone (Almost everyone) passed the tests. It was around 700 bucks, and drinks at the legion are really cheap. He does the Masters upgrade on a 3 day weekend a week or two later.
