THE FORMAT

No textbook — purely on‑the‑water instruction

The ASA 111 clinic has no written examination or textbook; instead, the entire session is an on‑the‑water review focused on practical sailing skills.

THE FLEX

Half‑day or full‑day options

Choose a half‑day refresher or extend to a full day depending on how much time you want to spend regaining confidence and practicing maneuvers.

THE FOCUS

Skill‑specific tune‑ups for certified sailors

This clinic is tailored for sailors who are already ASA certified and who want a refresher, extra instruction, or concentrated practice on a particular skill in a relaxed setting.

What the day feels like

What it feels like on the water

Expect a brisk, practical session that gets you back into the rhythm of sail handling without testing or paperwork: a friendly, no‑pressure environment where instruction lives on deck and in the rigging rather than in a classroom.
