The American Sailing Association (ASA) is a group of
sailors, sailing instructors, sailing schools, and charter fleets. Our purpose is to
bring organization and professional standards to the sailing industry. The
association is dedicated to boating safety through education, to ensure that every sailor
learns to sail properly and is able to prove the ability to sail. |

|
The heart of the ASA program is a comprehensive set of
sailing standards, which are detailed in the ASA Sailing Log Book. These
performance objectives allow sailors to be evaluated on their sailing knowledge and
seamanship skills. But more importantly, through certification to these standards,
the ASA provides the individual with a way to prove these abilities to rental and charter
fleets throughout the country and around the world. |
