Basic Coastal Cruising
(ASA 103)
Live-Aboard Weekend Class
(9AM Saturday, overnight to
5PM Sunday)
This overnight course builds on your basic knowledge and includes an
overnight
anchorage in the San Juan Islands! In addition to anchoring, the course introduces
navigation, reefing, sailing a plotted course, choosing proper sail configuration, and
"heaving to". Your goal is to safely sail, both as skipper and crew, on a
30 to 40 foot sailboat in moderate wind and sea conditions. With a maximum of
only 4 students, everyone receives plenty of helm time and hands-on sailing.
There will be both a written and a skills test to complete
the course. Thorough study of your "Sailing Fundamentals" text will
prepare you for your course and greatly enhance your learning experience.
The Basic Coastal Cruising (BCC) curriculum (link below) will be helpful to
follow while reviewing the text and will streamline your studying.
