Climb weekly, monthly and country leaderboards alongside skippers worldwide.
Every question comes with a clear explanation — so you understand why the answer is right.
Every day a fresh question is drawn from our maritime question bank — rules of the road at sea (COLREGs), VHF radio and DSC procedures, coastal and offshore navigation, IALA buoyage, yacht safety, weather and seamanship. Answer correctly seven times in a row to complete a Strike and climb the global leaderboard.
Questions rotate across the full set of practical yacht skipper knowledge areas:
Enjoying the VHF questions? Turn that knowledge into a certificate — the online VHF SRC course pairs self-paced theory with the same realistic VHF/DSC simulator our quiz players practise on, and finishes with an online exam and a next-day digital certificate.

A Strike is earned by answering seven daily questions correctly in a row. Weekly and super strikes reward longer streaks with a visible badge on the leaderboard.
All questions are handmade and carefully curated by the SkipperCheck team at Nautica.lv — the Baltic's first international sailing school since 2008 — in cooperation with experienced lecturers from the Latvian Maritime Academy.
In most official skipper exams, you are not required to memorise more than 500 questions. What matters is your understanding and your ability to make correct decisions at sea. If you converted the full syllabus into quiz questions, you'd be surprised how manageable the total actually is. SkipperCheck helps you stay sharp by providing fresh, relevant questions daily — including occasional bonus questions to broaden your knowledge. Little by little, you'll become one of the best-informed skippers — almost without realising it. Small steps, taken regularly — that's the secret. Just 5 minutes a day can make a huge difference in a year. Exams will also feel much easier.
Most maritime trivia sites offer static question banks that rarely change. SkipperCheck is the only dedicated daily quiz built specifically for yacht skippers. It features a live global leaderboard, streak mechanics, and a bonus question delivered by email to subscribers. We are constantly adding new questions to keep the quiz fresh and challenging.
