About SailQuiz

SailQuiz helps sailors worldwide master sailing theory through quiz-based learning. Whether you are preparing for an exam or simply want to sharpen your knowledge, we make it easy to learn at your own pace.

What we do

SailQuiz is a quiz-first learning platform built for sailors. We currently offer 1,900+ questions across 38 modules and 3 courses, covering the topics that matter most: COLREGS (rules of the road), navigation, tides, weather, VHF radio, boat handling, safety at sea, and more.

How our content is created

Course modules can carry named instructor-review details and a review date when that review has been recorded. Each question comes with a detailed explanation so you understand not just the correct answer, but the reasoning behind it. SailQuiz is an independent study tool: it supports theory practice but is not approved by, affiliated with, or a substitute for instruction from any certification or government body.

Who it's for

Beginners learning to sail and building foundational knowledge
Intermediate sailors studying coastal navigation and seamanship
Anyone preparing for a sailing or marine radio certification exam
Sailors worldwide, regardless of which certifying body they are working with

Our approach

SailQuiz is built on the principle that actively recalling information is the most effective way to learn. Our quiz-first approach is backed by research into retrieval practice and spaced repetition, two of the most evidence-based learning techniques available.
