With the license, which you will not be granted through this app but by a separate official entity that we are not affiliated with, you will then be allowed to operate sailing and motor boats up to 20 meters in length.* The recreational boat license is internationally recognized in many countries, for example in Croatia, Spain, Italy, or Greece, and makes you fit for any area.

The app is perfect for:

- Sailors
- Motorboat operators
- Candidates for the recreational boat license
- Anyone who wants to brush up on their knot-tying skills

Start preparing now and become confident in all the important sailing and recreational boating knots.

* We are not affiliated with a government entity. This app will not grant you an official recreational boating license, but rather just prepare you for the practical exam. The exam may contain more than this app shows. The content of the exam may change at any time. In Germany, the examination and issuance of the recreational boat license (SBF Binnen/See) is handled by examination boards commissioned by the Federal Ministry, e.g., at the Deutscher Segler-Verband (DSV) or the Deutscher Motoryachtverband (DMYV).
