Pass the Queensland Boat Licence Test
2027 Edition: RMDL and PWC Licence Theory for Your BoatSafe Course, the Queensland Rules in Force, 300 Practice Questions and Five Full 50-Question Mock Tests
Ebook. Also on other Apple Books and Google Play Books stores.
Preparing for the Queensland recreational marine driver licence (RMDL) theory assessment, and perhaps the personal watercraft (PWC, jet ski) licence as well? This guide explains the Queensland boating rules in plain language, points out the traps, and then lets you practise until the answers come without hesitation.
The RMDL theory assessment is a 50-question multiple-choice assessment with 45 minutes to complete it and a 100% pass requirement. The PWC licence theory assessment is also multiple choice, with 45 minutes and a 100% pass mark. The book's five mock tests are 50 questions each and use the same standard, so you know where you stand before your BoatSafe course assessment.
What is inside:
- 12 short chapters you can read on a phone, from the Queensland licences and the BoatSafe theory assessment to the rules of the road, speed and distance limits, navigation marks, lights and sound signals, emergencies, and riding a PWC
- 4 appendices: checklists, numbers to remember, a glossary of boating terms, and a seven-evening revision plan
- 300 original questions, every one with the correct answer and a short explanation: 25 practice questions by chapter, 25 PWC practice questions and 5 full mock tests of 50 questions
Rules are current at the time of writing. Where a point could not be confirmed, the book says so and tells you to check with Maritime Safety Queensland.
All questions are original. This is an independent study guide: it is not produced, endorsed or approved by the Queensland Government, Maritime Safety Queensland or any test provider, and it does not contain real assessment questions. It does not replace the official material or your training provider.
Part of the Pass the Test series.
Method of creation: this book was written with the help of artificial intelligence tools, under the author's direction; every rule was written from its source text and reviewed and every practice question was written for this book.
