I took the NC test and also got 61 of 75 for 81%. Most of the ones I missed were coastal markers, alcohol laws (I don't drink), etc... Stuff that is important, just not as applicable to me.

57 of 75 here. Guess I need to study, huh.
Looks like I turned left when I was the stand-on boat....... too cautious?
Wasn't sure of the difference in a type A & a type B fire extinguisher.
Missed the ones regarding how many honks of the horn when overtaking another boat.
Plus a couple of PWC questions....non-lateral markers..... sounds signals..... legal boating age (14?!)

Approach the dock at a narrow angle? I guess they haven't driven an inboard that has little steering capability at idle. ;-)

I took the practice test, got a 79%, then I went through the online training, took the real certification test, and passed with a 93% all in about 1 1/2 hours, so now I can lower my boat insurance!!!!!!!! I wish I would have known about this site earlier!! 10% adds up when you own multiple boats.....

61 out of 75!!!!!!!!! 81% and a test from a state where I have never been and will probably never go.
Some stupid-a$$ questions though.
Our test is 36 Q's and i got 35 right.
I think the Q's I missed were State specific, ie- In Ohio the rule is............................

79%....I imagine a lot of them were the questions about International Waterways and Saltwater laws....I'm a fresh water man so I'll give myself the richardsoncd curve and say I got 92% :D

No Arizona test, so I took the CA one. 67/75, 89%.
Buoy questions and age-related items; I'm not too worried. I read the buoys, and my kids are 4 so I'm not too worried about them operating my boat quite yet.
