Study by syllabus topic.

Core topics are mapped to the current Danish order BEK 1441/2025, §3. Its clauses do not publish a fixed question list or exam length. The three ocean-extension topics are additional practice, not claimed syllabus or official RYA exam coverage.

How to read this map

The topic references point to §3(4) for required subject areas, §3(5) for knowledge and §3(6) for practical competency. This trainer checks theory only; it does not assess practical skipper skills or replace an approved provider’s exam guidance.
