Features and benefits
- FlashCards uses lifelike, 3D models to depict scenarios you might find in real life. Night-time buoyage FlashCards show flashing lights. So, when you see a similar situation on the water, you can easily recall the information you need to make important manoeuvring decisions.
- If you are unsure of an answer, 'Look it up'. RulesMaster FlashCards II includes rule summaries which illustrate the Rules and IALA Buoyage in a format that makes them easy to remember.
- To look up the full text of a Rule, jump to RuleBook, a complete electronic text of the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea. RuleBook automatically opens to the rule that applies for the current flashcard. You can also select a specific Rule or search for a word or phrase. The RuleBook includes separate versions for International, US Inland and Canadian modifications, so that you can see where and how a rule applies in your home waters.
- Use the Setup Wizard to configure your practice sessions. Select question categories, the number of flashcards, random or ordered questions, and open or closed book.
- After you complete all required responses to a FlashCard, you'll be invited to check your answer. A text explanation is given, your responses marked correct or incorrect, and your score updated. For night-time scenarios, the vessel or buoy fades into view.
Learning can be more fun ... and more permanent. Give it a try. RulesMaster FlashCards II costs only 45 Australian dollars (plus 10% GST for Australian residents). Purchase easily and safely online or download a free trial.
