Basic Sailing
(ASA 101)
Live-Aboard Weekend Class
(9AM Saturday, overnight to 5PM Sunday)
Learn the fundamentals of sailing a 30 to 40 foot sailboat. All
instruction takes place on the boat. With only four students per class everyone
receives a lot of time at the helm and hands-on sailing. Learn sailing terminology,
what makes a sailboat go, points of sail, basic knots, boating safety, "rules of the
road" on the water, and docking. And, experience the cruising life while
staying aboard your boat at an anchorage in the San Juan Islands!
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 Sailing curriculum (link below) is helpful to follow while reviewing
the text and will streamline your studying.
