What is the ASA?

Driven by a clear need for uniform teaching standards and increased access to sailing activities, the American Sailing Association (ASA) has been the leader in U.S. sailing education for nearly two decades. The association has grown to include an international network of 200 plus professionally accredited sailing schools. More than 200,000 students have graduated from ASA schools and clubs since 1983. The ASA has formed a strategic partnership with the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary which now uses our book, Sailing Fundamentals by Gary Jobson. We were instrumental in establishing national education standards through our work on the National Association of State Boating Law Administrators' Education Committee. The ASA has also consulted with the Department of Transportation and the National Parks Service. Join now and assist us with our mission to help make our lifestyle safer and more enjoyable!
