Sitting in a weekend-long class with white walls, tennis ball chairs, and middle-school desks while your friends are out boating? To quote my favourite woman of the internet, ‘Ain’t nobody got time for that.’ Why wait to get your boating license when you can get your boating license anywhere, anytime, from any device with BOATsmart!

All you need is a laptop, smartphone or tablet, and WiFi. Oh yeah, and if you want to save yourself a few hours, keep reading.
At the end of the day, it’s all about learning the essentials of boating, getting out on the water, and making memories.
