This Buoys & Lights app will help improve your overall boating skills and safety on the water. Buoys & Lights is designed to help all recreational and professional seafarers learn and understand the world buoyage systems which are organised by the International Association of Lighthouse Authorities (IALA). There are two systems in use, IALA A and IALA B and they are both explained fully in this app. There are 4 main sections in this boating safety app: 1. Buoyage: A graphic reference guide with 70 illustrations and captions which explain the different types of buoy, their uses, appearance, permutations and light characteristics. 2. Lights: A graphic reference guide with 12 illustrations and captions which explain the different types of light and their characteristics, used by beacons and lighthouses. 3. IALA Rules: The International Association of Lighthouse Authorities (IALA) rules are reproduced in full. 4. Test Yourself: A series of multiple choice questions with 35 graphic representations of buoys and lights helps you check your knowledge.

Misrepresentation at its best

Maya cos · 11 years ago · v6

Quickest app deleted after buying to date. Pics show well, app is nowhere near the presentation. Best avoided. Big opportunity for someone to create a simple reference app in this category. Thought I found one but alas, they found my money only...

Not worth the time or money

Clarazouari · 10 years ago · v7.0

The app is extremely basic, the two quizzes are just basic flash cards, no actual scenarios or buoyed channels.

Non ci sono immagini.... La cosa più importante

A valuable resource, nicely done, thank you

I had cause to need this info recently when out in a near gale force wind. Brilliant - I had it on my iPhone in a water proof case, and could refer to it without leaving the (very wet) helm - much better than a dash to the chart table to thumb through a book! Thank you!

Good, useful & easy to understand

Ive been studying for my exams, and this was really useful. A few of us made the purchase, and everyone reckons it was worth it. A good buy for anyone out on the water.
