    This is a practice exam to test your knowledge of boating rules. Try it before the real one. It's 50 questions and you get a score at the end.

    Passed w/ 92%. I wish it let me know which ones I missed.
    Life is like a fish on a line. When it is there you feel it. You fight it. You gain line. You lose line. But if that line snaps or that pole breaks, or a thousand other problems occur that fishermen use as excuses, when the tension is gone, you feel it even more. <br />Jimmy Buffet

    80%
    I think my major screwups were the pwc stuff and also the fire extinquisher stuff.

    Got a 88% in PA, and a 92% in NJ. Both require 80% to pass. Joe, agreed, they should let you know which ones you missed.

    Hey, That's a great test site there! 92%. It would be nice to know what you got wrong though.

    Those pwc one's got me. The one about righting the pwc either clockwise, counterclockwise, away from the waves and something else???

    yes i awnsered away from the waves so the wave wouldn't roll it back on ya ,but after i napped on it i think some manafactures suggest what way to roll it so water dosen't inter the air intakes. anyone know ?

    i think the fog horns got me.

    what is it one prolonged whisle on a blind bend ?

    & while underway in the fog is it one every two minutes? or - then -- ?

    neat test, thanks for posting

    Because a boat does not have brakes, stopping your vessel when it is moving forward is best accomplished by

    A. paddling backwards while turning off the motor.

    "You completed the practice final exam with a 92% score." that was an easier test than the last one I tried
