Structure of the class was very good. It was easy to follow along and understand all the lessons. The price of the course was fair. I would recommend this boaters safety course.

Let me start off with "this is a very detailed but simple and well thought out service". It is written for a grade 5-6 to easily understand it, and the multiple choice questions weren't always completely obviously so you need to understand the content. The downfall to this service is that all lessons within the modules are timed, but not timed according to the lessons content. They mostly provide an audio, video and written content for each lesson, though if you are a quick reader or already understand the content, you have to wait 40 to 60 seconds before moving onto the next lesson. And when there are 30-50 questions per module that time adds up very quickly. Don't fail a module or you will have to listen/read each lesson all over again ... timed ... no skip button. I understand needing the timer but at least make sure it is sync'd to the questions. The final exam gives you 1hr and 30min to complete ... though if you understand the content you can fly through it in 20min. In total the modules took me 6hrs ... but it was a good experience. Yeh! I have my license! :)

I found the course to be extremely informative about all aspects of boating. The details were excellent, and the timed requirement for each section of the modules helped reinforce the learning.

I thought the modules where lengthy but very informative. My only regret is o didn't get my whole family to do it too. The test had a couple impossible questions but all in all common sense should get you a relatively high score. I got a 94% which I was a bit surprised I scored that high but like I said common sense.

I like learning new courses especially related to keeping other people safe. I practiced the quizzes on each section probably at least 5 times. I do feel a lot of the questions did not show up in the quizzes as on the final test. I did go back and try to make sure if I was not comfortable on a question to review it. As I was taking the final test got very nervous I would not pass as the questions I thought quite different.

I feel it's cheap to acquire this license and lasts for life which is great! I think though a "on the lake" practical course should be a requirement but at a reasonable price to have someone train you say about 3-4 hrs for windy weather, docking, wrenching boatvto trailer etc. But good information theory wis, thx 🙂

Everything about the course was great. However When I failed one quiz I was rather annoyed I had to sit though an entire module all over again just to retake the 10 question quiz. It of course still bennifited me to re read the entire module over but really it would have been more convenient to only have to re study the sections that pertained to the two questions I got wrong. Also I feel another 10 minutes on the final exam would have been a little less stressful. I finished with 3-4 minutes left and I felt I was answering the questions pretty quickly. Other then those two things the online course and modules where very well written and explained and it was worth the money. On a positive note the customer service was great. I had some questions before taking the final exam and I emailed the customer service center and not even 6 hours later I had a response. Goood job! Great customer service in this day and age is a huge deal! Thanks again BOATsmart Shawn

A very comprehensive course. The toughest part was in understanding what the various buoys meant and it appeared as if some of these were not covered in the modules and I ended up guessing. It certainly gave me a lot of insight though, as I haven't owned a boat for several years. I completely understand the need for this type of course in the interest of public safety on the water.

It would be good to know what questions you got wrong while doing the module and the final test. The study guide (paper version) should be included with the price.

I am embarrassed to say this, but have been sailing (and sometimes teaching) for 20 years, and did not have my PCOC. I finally took the time to do the studies, write the test - and it was excellent. I was humbled at times that there were gaps in my knowledge (I assumed after being on the water that long that I knew my stuff), and so it was a great refresher. Thank you for the excellent learning modules, I would highly recommend this to anyone who intends to begin boating and especially, for others who have been on the water for years but have never challenged their knowledge.
