What the course gives you
Not "another English course", but a trainer built for one goal — to pass the Marlins Test and get a job on board.
The Marlins Test for Seafarers is an international maritime English test for ship crew, developed by Marlins (Ocean Technologies Group Ltd). Its result is required by most crewing companies when hiring for vessels under IMO flags.
Pass on the first try
You arrive at the test prepared for the real format — no surprises, in your usual rhythm.
Keep your contract
A confirmed Marlins English level is your clearance to sail and a secured place in the crewing pool.
No guesswork
The review of every answer explains why it is so. You understand the material instead of memorising the right button.
What's inside
A question bank organised by exam section and mock tests built in exactly its format.
Listening
Listening comprehension tasks — the core of the exam. You train understanding of spoken speech at test pace.
Grammar & Vocabulary
Grammar and vocabulary — the typical structures and maritime terminology where points are most often lost.
Reading
Reading and understanding texts: ship documentation, instructions, messages — in the format of the test questions.
Time & Number
Time and numbers by ear — dates, coordinates, frequencies, quantities. A separate skill drilled until automatic.
5 mock tests
Five full tests of 60 questions each, assembled from the bank in the real exam format. Take them from start to finish, timed.
