Almost!
An Observer can apply to be an "X" to his/her regional committee.
That committee will then either approve or deny the request.
If approved, two references are sought from exsisting XO's at the discretion of the committee.
After successful references, the upgrade is then referred to the MSA......and you then wait for 17 yrs for an upgrade.
(That's how it worked for me.......it might have changed!)
