The material, quizzes and practice exam were great, no problems there. The main problem is your Tawk/chat widget on your site! I had to cancel out of it every time I returned to the site to continue... See more

Missing Information

The grammar was awful, but I could live with it. What was bad was a lot of the questions were not covered in the course at all. Also some questions were on certain chapter test that were covered in chapters later on.

Also, the NC part for age of rider was extremely confusing. It gave 3 ages, and ended with 16 being the age. In NC wild life states:

It is unlawful for the owner of a PWC to knowingly allow a person younger than 16 to operate a PWC unless they have first completed an approved boating safety education course.

but your age answer is 14. This is not right. I would have people check laws before someone gets a ticket.

I don’t get how you charge 25 dollars…

I don’t get how you charge 25 dollars to take the test then when you finish you’re forced to buy the boaters card for another 10 dollars or you don’t get your boating license it’s bull crap shouldn’t be that expensive to take a test and you shouldn’t have to buy a card when you have a piece of paper saying you have it

Enjoyable Course

I enjoyed the fact it was on your own time. I was able to get a section or two done and then it saved my progress and when I came back to go through the material it picked up where I left off and didn't have to do it all in one sitting.
