Great app for learning more about sailing and studying what you already know. Easy to use, keeps a running score, corrects you if you're wrong. Try it!

1.0 out of 5 stars Bad Connection??????
Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2016
No matter how close I was to a WiFi it would not work (any WiFi). The pop up would tell me that it couldn't find a good connection.

3.0 out of 5 stars Lots of Potential, but Needs Work
Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2014
Has potential; however, I found several answers to be incorrect and questions with major typos making them hard to understand. This could be a very useful tool for people first learning to sail and pick up the vocabulary; however, many of the questions are devoted to sailing trivia like types of Olympic sailing boats ... Focus on the basic vocabulary necessary for a first time sailor and I would recommend this to students.
