Crap

This app has some good info. But when it comes to light config you have to buy another app for lights. Worth

Ok but ..

Clear diagrams and cross reference to rules. But answer to the last question in the test is wrong! Careless. I have told them, but got no reply. So 2 star service for possible 4/5 star app.

Good

Good for revision and to have with you anytime but question 28 in the test yourself section gives an incorrect answer. The correct answer is " pilot vessel making way"

Top marks for top graphics

Stunning graphics inside this app: I could ogle all day! It's helped me distinguish the shapes, colour schemes, sound signals, locations and markings for most structures in the water like buoys and lighthouses. It's got all the info on buoyage in both regions A (Europe) and B (USA, Japan). The test yourself quiz is great for testing other members of the crew during a round of drinks or fellow skippers. You won't regret this one.

COLREGS

I purchased this app (and its sister app "Nav Lights & Shapes") to study for a USCG nav rules exam. It wasn't that helpful. The self-test feature works okay, but doesn't allow you to keep track of your progress. Most annoying for me is that one must purchase two separate apps to cover the entire COLREGs, and US Inland Rules are not Included. (Okay, I know it is a UK app.) One is better off simply studying the COLREGS itself.

Stunning visuals

I'd like to say the same thing as they did for the sister app ColRegs Nav lights: the graphics look stunning on my iPad 3 and having is my fingertips means a lot going rusty when another water. thanks guys.

OK?

OK, but disappointing. Rules should be explained with situation diagrams and I struggle to understand why you have NOT included THE most important rule in the IRPCS namely, RULE 2 !!!!

Good app

Good app but some rules wrong. Vessel Cbd and Ram. Not for OOW
