Needs work

Thought this would be the one that quizzes you with the actual questions on the CG exam; instead it’s just and electronic version of the navigation rules. One problem I found was it does not specify whether a rule is ‘inland’ or ‘international’.

A great tool

Ignore the other reviewers, I’m guessing they didn’t look before they bought and now they’re peeved. There are many other applications to get in depth Collision Regulations , but at that point you may as well get a book (iBooks has some good interactive ones.) This app is a quick study guide that I like to let my students use when studying advanced cruising. It serves as a helpful reminder, that clears up the cluttered mess of other apps, since everything is organized well. I like to use it for morse code as well, but the flash cards are a great way to teach anything from ColRegs to semaphore. There are ways it could be improved, but it does not merit such low reviews.

An Idiots Reference

Don't buy this app or download it. If you should find yourself on a vessel and you cannot remember the rules of the road then jump off and start swimming. This app gives you a brief, very brief and therefore not complete COLREGS. There are better apps out there.

Getting my Captain

So far it looks really good. It nice to have this app so I can study for my captain's license.

Good for training

It's a good app. I am in the coast guard and it's good review and good for teaching new younger seaman. Just be aware that nav rules do change and you must keep updated yourself.

Marine Rules and Signals

This is at best a $.99 app. The most ripped off of any App I've ever purchased.

Primitive

does not take advantage of iPhone's or other interactive features; simply reproducton of printed book - terribly disappointed

Ripoff

Yeah, I agree with capt Jack here. This by no means is worth what you are paying for here. I expected more. This at best would have been a beginners boating .99 app.

Not worth the money!

This app is totally overpriced. It should be free. Info is very simplistic and general info that every boater should already know. Def not a good reference unless you are just looking up flag signals.

Disappointed

Very simplistic and hard to view images since you can't enlarge them. Extremely disappointed for the price. Wouldn't recommend. Spend the money to buy a book on the topic.
