“Do not charter a boat from this company they are terrible!”

I chartered a sail boat from this company total ripoff ( Grant). The boat was terrible. Nothing worked heads, air, generator waited 2 days for parts that did not fix the problem. When I contacted Grant he hung up on me because I was upset. It totally Ruined my trip. We ended up losing 4 days on a 10 day trip. I would say I would never go thru him again. However is remedy to the problem was he would knock off a couple of hundred Dollars of my next trip Ya right like I am going to ever trust him again!

Great course - needs editing for grammatical errors

When I started this course, I was frustrated by all the grammatical errors. I had paid a lot of money for the course and felt that the authors could have taken the time to edit the content. I still feel this way, but as I progressed through the modules, the overall impression of the course has improved steadily - thanks to the quality of the technical presentation - which is excellent. Like the author, I'm an electrical engineer and certified pilot, so the presentation of the material and the review questions are great. I would gladly give this course five stars if NauticEd would take the time to fix just a few hundred grammatical errors...

I thought that the tides and currents course would be just a review of things I had learned while taking ASA 101,103 and 104. I was so wrong! This course adds a great deal of information to what I had already learned. I was very impressed with how up to date and in depth that information is. It was well worth taking.

I purchased the RYA day skipper course through NauticEd but I found the training material on the website to be 1) not aligned with the material in the RYA course, especially the way it is organized and 2) I found the practical exercises and the answers for questions to be really average in several instances. For example, an answer would be provided with very little detail on how it was derived, thus making learning difficult and slow.
Overall I would recommend using a different provider or a classroom-based course.
I really found it frustrating trying to learning and felt disappointed in the whole program.

The course material is good, some sections (navigation) are very technical and covered superficially. Some tests are quite tough and you end-up learning through trial and error than the actual material. The kicker though is that they don't mention that it may cost $1000 or more to arrange to take the practical on the water exams with a qualified assessor.
