Overall great. Of the 6 model quizzes their were atleast 2 questions that weren’t covered well or were outdated stats. I wish I could see what questions I missed from the models and final exam to learn from. I also wish it was a bit more specific... ex) how many yards off shore I need to be to be out of the wake zone. I liked the videos and layout. I like that you could go as fast as you wanted without be stuck on time locked pages like some of the safety programs from other providers. It was nice it saved my progress so I could complete it over multiple days at my own pace. Even though I passed the exam with a 98 it was good to know I could have retaken it if I wasn’t successful. I’d recommend Boatsmart to others without hesitation.

It was a good course. It would be helpful if it gave you feedback on quizzes so you know which questions you got wrong.

The course was definitely helpful. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars was that I was disappointed with quite a few of the final exam questions. While they were from the course material, I think there was plenty of much more beneficial questions that should have been on the final exam. For example, I had a question about what type of motor is on a PWC? Not really that big a deal, is it? I think a better question would have been in relation to navigation or safety. I know the questions are probably pulled at random from a bank of questions, but I honestly think that someone should cull some of these types of questions with better, more relevant and useful questions. But still a very helpful and educational course, thank you!

The content was good. The timer was terrible. I spent 75% of my time waiting for the timer to tick down so I could proceed. This could be done in 1.5 hours if allowed and I would consider using another service for this simple fact.

Didn’t cover all of the exam questions but did a good job of basic learning, it repeated quite a bit though.

Wish I could have seen how I did on the exams. - which I got right and which I got wrong.

The course was good but it was very strange preparing for a Transport Canada test with an American narrating the course. Every time there was a mention of a buoy he said "booee".

It took a while but I think with the boat card everything will go smoothly when renting boats. It will have you set up for any future plans. Great price as well.

Lots of great information. The narration was not what what written in a few sections so that was distracting and hard to follow but otherwise well done

Shouldn’t be timed. Far too much time allotted.

The course covered a wide range of topics in a variety of easy to understand formats; written for those who like to learn by reading and audio for those who do better verbal learning. And as a someone who has been boating for over 30 years I learned a few new facts that will make me a better and more courteous boater.

My only complaint is that there is no way to find out which questions were missed on the Section Quizzes and what the correct answer is. There is very little learning value in knowing that you got 80% right if you don't know which ones you missed and what the right answers are. This could be a very valuable improvement.

The material is excellent, clear, and prepared me well for the test, and then seamlessly handled producing the card. Gripes: - course dashboard didn't correctly reflect progress through the course and hours spent on the course. Progress indicated 0% after the third module but hours spent was too high (over 20). - wish there was a way to advance the course. I could read the material on each page much more quickly than the time alloted.

I liked the course a lot because it was interesting. However the required time in each module did not match up with hoe long it took and I was mostly waiting for the seconds to count down to 0. Mostly it was about 50 seconds off.

Good course. Information is clear and well-presented. Sometimes the timers are too long for the amount of content provided before you can move to the next lesson.

Everything was laid out and easily understood. My only complaint was that I read faster than the prompts and it does not allow you to move to the next section until the timer runs out so that made the process a whole lot longer than it needed to be. Super frustrating since there are so many sub-sections to get through. Be prepared for a lot of waiting for that timer to run out before moving on.

Overall a good course. A few spelling errors, one of which on the final exam made the question confusing.

Good course. Would give it 5 stars if I didn't have to wait for 30 seconds after I finished reading every slide. Still very good course
