An HONEST Review of the American Sailing Association Sailing Lessons
I’m learning how to sail and decided to take the American Sailing Associations Sailing 101, ASA 103 and ASA 104 courses, the first step in my new boat life.
This video is an honest review of the course that I took through the American Sailing Association in La Paz, Baja Mexico with GoBaja Sailing. I filmed this immediately after finishing my sailing program, sitting in the hotel room in La Paz.
I definitely have some opinions about the American Sailing Association but want to be clear that the actual sailing school that I used was excellent. I would use them again and I highly recommend my instructor Doug.

    No have not had problems - mostly seems like the company you did the course with was the problem ? on the upside the 101-103-104 is also your gateway for the IPC international certificate. BTW. reach - wording can go many ways - in the end - its about that we sail according to the wind, we go closer, higher, tighter, into, head-up.. or fall-off, etc etc. I find one of the bigger problems when having guests on the boat, is getting to work according to the wind over the coast around them, compass, even the boot.. :-)

    The affiliates (schools) are in charge of shipping all the books to you. They receive boxes of books from American Sailing and then ship them to the students. So this is more likely a GoBaja Sailing problem than an American Sailing problem. Now would the affiliates like this done automatically by American Sailing, and would this fix the problems with shipping you had?

    No, I was corresponding with the person in charge of shipping the books at ASA. Their email identified where they were writing from

    @@TrailguidePictures you, certainly, were critical of the publisher's typo. Even mentioning editing once the material was completed. As an video editor, I find it easy to miss a typo too. I think Bree was pointing out the irony. Your dismissive reply was a miss step. Maybe making a cute joke about your error wouldve been the move. I saw the typo and leaped into the comments to point it out in a joking way - until I saw this exchange. Now, I have a clearer understanding of your personality. (I only watched your ASA videos to this point)

    ​@@TrailguidePictures to be used to describe a point of sail. "tight reach" / "open reach". Dewd, youre terrible. Your personality sucks.
