Clear and concise
I have experience conning US Navy Destroyers, however, it's been a long time and my experience was mostly open ocean and not related to sailing. This course was a great refresher. Self paced with actual rules and the discussion helped. I liked that you stressed that you can do the right thing, by the rules, and still be in the wrong.
Terrific job of presenting a lot of tough material in a straightforward manner
Everything
Good summary and clear explanation of the important rules in COLREGS.
Detailed and presented in a good format.
Clearly explained with the added animated examples along with video strengthened understanding. Made sense and "tricks" to understanding was useful.
Clearly written and well illustrated. Very logical organization of the rules.
images of realistic scenarios
Very good , review ability
Graphics were very helpful in understanding questions.
Great course. Detailed and helpful even for an experienced sailor.
