Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the Compass Revision Network, course access, bundles, and the linked revision sites.

About the Network

What is the Compass Revision Network?

Compass Revision Network is the umbrella brand for independent sailing study products covering UK and international RYA syllabus topics, U.S. sailing, Canadian sailing, navigation, and marine radio.

Which sites are part of the network?

The network currently links Day Skipper Theory, Coastal Skipper Theory, Yachtmaster Theory, and Marine Radio Revision.

Is this an official RYA product?

No. The network and the course websites are independent study aids. They are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to the Royal Yachting Association (RYA).

Access & Payments

Does one unlock cover every site?

Not automatically. A single-course purchase covers the named course, while bundles cover the courses listed at checkout. Yachtmaster access also includes its shared Coastal Skipper theory foundation.

Where do I pay?

You can buy a single course from its course website or choose a clearly labelled multi-course bundle from Compass Revision. The checkout summary shows exactly which courses are included before payment.

Can I use the same account across the sites?

Yes, the platform uses a shared account system. Your access and progress are still tied to the specific course website you are using.

Choosing a Course

Which site should I choose first?

Choose the site that matches your current training: Day Skipper for the first shorebased step, Coastal Skipper for post-Day-Skipper coastal passage-making, Yachtmaster for Coastal or Offshore exam-standard consolidation, and Marine Radio SRC for VHF Radio revision.

Can I move between courses later?

Yes. The network exists to make the family of tools clear, so you can move to the next course site when your training changes.

Does the network issue certificates?

No. These are revision tools only. Official course completion, exams, assessments, and certificates are handled by the relevant RYA Recognised Training Centre or examiner.
