Very comprehensive and a good informative study, the only downside/disappointment I had was when I did get a wrong answer I didn't know which one was wrong. When I called chat I was told to look up the one(s) that I was unsure of. Well that's great but I was sure that I had all the answers correct so what do I look up ? I hope the wrong answer was not a critical one that will come and bite me later. Sincerely, Jim Stenko

It was definitely harder then I thought! Some of the questions are a bit to hard I think.

Hi. Well, it was more work than I thought, but I am a 71 year old Grandma, and I wanted to show my son and three grandson's that I could do it. But, I can't believe what you have to learn and how things have changed since I was young. I enjoyed learning all about boating and lights and buoys, so nobody can pull the wool over my eyes if they say.."No. It's ok Grandma, we can do this". It has made me more aware on the waterways; even when I watch the local or provincial news! I say to myself..."I knew that." Now, I cannot forget to thank the staff at Boatsmart. In the beginning I had to call about 4 times with questions, and they were so friendly and helpful and made me feel better about myself and even though I misunderstood some things, they never made me feel foolish. So, keep up the excellent work and Thank you so much. V. Filby.

The course it self was easy to follow and manuver through. I just wish the government or powers that be, who decide what you need to know, would spend more time on actual boating or pwc "on the water" info, instead of when the laws were written or whats the name of the place that you send paperwork to. A person taking the test, should only be asked questions about being safe! Drive home the point of wearing your life jacket!! not when a law went into afect that will not help when your in the water!

The course was great and easy to understand. It would be nice if they provided a laminated reference sheet for some of the things (like buoys) to keep in boat. A few words were misspelled in the training so may want to have someone proof the content. It was nice to be able to take it from my home, however, it is a very long course.

course was very detailed, easy to follow and self explanatory. one criticism on the tests for each module, no feed back as to what if any questions were wrong. Otherwise good value for the money.

This is a great learning tool, but I found it annoying that I had to wait through the minimum duration of a few topics that I already knew about. Overall though, I would definitely recommend this site to anyone looking to get their PCOC.

It's a good course and I understand there is a lot to learn about how to be responsible when operating a pleasure craft however still, it's very long.

Overall the course was good and I did learn a few things. The only negative is that the application itself was a bit glitch. That is, in many sections of the various modules, I could not view the video, but had to rely on the audio alone. In some cases when I refreshed the page, the video would be presented, but often I would see only a black box.

The quiz questions were tough and worded in such a way I had to go back through material to research answers... When I took the actual test, I found myself very prepared and passed... missed a sailboat answer though:). All in all, very well thought out course.

What a well made course! Everything was laid out so well and I ended up acing the exam because of it, I am glad there were time limits because it had forced me to learn the safety regulations and proper rules of the waterways. So well done! The motivation was great!
