Basic Keelboat River Sailing Certification Course

It is possible to earn both ASA 101 and 103 by taking this course but the certifications are not awarded automatically. Those without previous sailing exposure or do not study the course materials may require additional training to successfully compete ASA 103. We are committed to working with our members to achieve qualifications. Cost includes first year American Sailing Association (ASA) membership.

The class is only open to PSC members. Join now to participate.
