“I found the course quite useful as I have been away from boating for some time. I am however disappointed that the quizzes are not reviewed in some way to see where mistakes are made. This also applies to the end test.”

Hi John - thanks for the feedback. Since there are a finite number of test questions and the test is open book and unsupervised - Transport Canada and NASBLA regulate that the answers not be shown. This is one of the check and balances put into place to maintain the integrity of online testing. As boaters too, we understand the feedback and are working with regulators to try and improve the process within the confines of online testing. Thanks for sticking with it and safe boating!

“The lessons were well done. There should be graduated licences like there are for vehicles. Small lake boaters do not need to know about ocean driving.”

“The course was well laid out and easy to follow. The only negative I would share is that you have no way of knowing what answers you missed. It would be helpful to have a review of the missed answers after each quiz and the final test to ensure you are getting the right information.”

“Sometimes the videos didn't work in the modules. In certain modules they didn't go in the exact order of the book, skipping pages and coming back to them. Overall a solid course that is easy to follow with the book.”

“It did not make me that happy, things I thought I knew I did not. One had to put on their thinking cap. Overall I would give it a 10 out 0f 10 to how the course was laid out, very well done. I learned several things I did not know. Keep up the great work.”

“The only thing that was annoying you can’t skip the questions until the set timer is done counting down, besides from that BostSmart was worth it. It took me close to 8 hours to comeplete everything inclunding the actual test.”

“I found it really great to be able to have the visuals. The slides really help understand the terminology and help me to recall the information. The only thing I would've liked is to go back and review my quizzes to see which question I may not have gotten correct.”

“Hey Boat Smart Staff, I began my studying on Mon, May 23, 2011 7:13 pm. After having been stopped by a representative of boatsmart at canadan tire and told about the online method of studying. I began but progress was very slow. The interface was not the best and I couldn't flip through the sections like a book. The sections were timed and it was a lot of reading. After the novelty wore off, I gave up interest. Since my father had been with me at the time I registered. He would from time to time ask me of my progress. What at first was a gentle nudge became more of a runnning joke after the 5th and 6th year rolled by. "Are ya boat smart yet" He would say. Now in the seventh year and living away from home I returned to the lessons of out respect for something my Dad wished for me to complete. I have found the website new and improved with great video illiustrations and moving diagrams. This is a more inductive way of learning and was much easier to make good progress. I forget what my actual time logged was but it was temendous due to the half hearted attemtps and leaving my browser open to 'run up the clock' in the old days. Perhaps this could be comical relief for the database manager. So perhaps I am your most unsecessfull or secessfull student depending on how you look at it. But either way I appreaciate boat smart honouring the committment to train me and even improve their delivery over time. So now I can proudly say I passed the exam Sat Jan 27 2018. Looks like it was 7 years start to finish. Perhaps Dad's going to have to buy that boat he hinted at almost a life time ago... Graham Brunt of Halifax, NS”

“There were some points not covered in your course, that where on the Transport Canada test, such as what to check about your Manual propulsion device, but otherwise very well done.”
