Maritime Master – IALA Buoyage
IALA Buoyage & Lights
$0.99 · Designed for iPad
Master IALA buoyage and light rhythms with interactive, light simulators and exam-style tests.
Maritime Master – IALA is your pocket trainer for buoyage and navigation lights, built for real-world sailing and exam-style practice.
See how IALA marks and light rhythms look, behave, then lock it in with targeted quizzes and mixed exams.
Master the two big IALA challenges
1. Buoyage
• Lateral marks for IALA Region A and Region B
• Cardinal, special, safe water and isolated danger marks
• Colours, shapes, topmarks and, crucially, what each mark means in practice
2. Navigation lights & rhythms
• Fixed, occulting, isophase, flashing, quick, very quick, ultra quick
• Morse, alternating and special patterns (including emergency wreck marks)
• Realistic animated “bulbs” plus timeline-style charts that mirror standard exam diagrams
Train the way exams test you
• Buoyage Basics – match descriptions and light characteristics to the correct mark
• Name That Buoy – image-only questions: identify the mark from the diagram
• Light Rhythms – match written descriptions to the correct IALA abbreviation
• Name That Light Pattern – watch the animated sequence, then choose the right answer
• Mixed Exam – longer, mixed papers for full pre-exam practice
Choose your IALA setup:
• Region A, Region B, or A + B (mixed)
The active region is always shown in the question so you’re never left guessing which convention applies.
Built for sailors and navigation students
• Ideal companion for popular theory and navigation courses
• Clear explanations under each question so every mistake becomes a lesson
• Modern, dark-friendly interface that echoes real chart symbols and light sequences
Maritime Master – IALA is designed to help you walk into your next theory lesson, exam, or passage planning session feeling confident with buoyage and lights – not just memorising patterns, but truly understanding what they mean on the water.
