Content too little

Not satisfactory at all. Is not worth the money.

Excellent videos with detailed information

I have learnt a lot from the videos and then from the training questions. I would have found some reference charts also helpful, rather than only the videos. But all in all I’ve found this to be the most useful app for learning theory of seamanship.

Used for 5 minutes before is crashed!

I wish it worked, app is outdated and does not work. Being a more expensive app...very disappointed.

Response from developer

Get a new update - all is fixed

Wish the light animations worked

I have been looking for an app to support day skipper study. This is not bad, but none of the animations for light identification work, which is annoying, because lights are one of the things a multimedia format like this would be ideal for.

Light module doesn’t work

In the light module you should sea lights flashing but they don’t :-(

Great Learning app

Easy to understand, great tool to study...

Good enough for Day Skipper

Great little app to support your course material for day skipper. Found it a useful tool for revision on the move. Would I recommend it? Yes, as a supportive role as it may give more information than you need for the course. Otherwise a great refresher for sea going crews.

Excellent way to learn and test your skills. Highly recommended.

Broad range of material covered in an easy to understand and learn fashion.

Worthless

I can't believe I paid $20 for this. It offers very little training. The videos don't even have sound. The training is only through quizzes. I don't know how you'd pass the quizzes after watching videos with no sound. Garbage app. Don't buy it.

Response from developer

Check the new updated version. Everything works fine

Very good

Nice bit of kit.
Will help the novice very we'll!!!

Good

You guys are doing great. I always wanted to be able to share my funny thoughts,or ideas even when I wasn't around anyone. Now I can!!!

Great

Lovely presentation and great execution of a sailing leaning aid on the iPhone though I must say, it looks better on the iPad. Very impressed.

Very helpful quiz app.

This app is very useful too use and help study for test and quizzes and is very easy too use. Helps college students with there test.

I wish I could get my money back

This app's information is old and useless. Don't waste your money.

Saw it on sailing anarchy and not worth it... At all.

The training is all contained within videos with no sound. To "learn" you watch animations. Good luck staying awake.

Good reference

Nice little app, good for learning, or brushing up on your sailing knowledge. Some issues with some of the terms used, i guess It was written in 'American' rather than 'UK' English. Good though. Going to find some time to watch all those videos!

Whoa people!

This free app will let you endure a free Safety Lesson. After that you're going to need to cough up some cash for the rest. A modest sum of $74.99 to be exact. It is not part of any certification program either. Here's an idea if you have $75 bucks to blow. Take a ride to Barnes & Noble, buy the 66th edition of Chapman Piloting and Seamanship. Everything you would like to learn and then some is it there. You can also pick up some Starbucks with the left over money. The people that are selling this "sailing school" should be ashamed!

Just what I needed!

A great app to get you started if you looking to learn Sailing! Very Clear and informative lessons.

Not impressed!

Couldn't really evaluate since everything is an in-app purchase. The shell is the only thing free.

Not training but blind test

Sorry waste of cash not as described, goes straight into a nonsense test of signals I have never seen in 15 years of sailing rubbish
