Docking
Course (ASA118) (live aboard)
2010 |
Docking a large cruising boat safely and without damage
can be a daunting task especially when the wind decides to blow 20 knots
during the process. Bow sprits and marriages are often broken or
severely damaged in the process. We've designed a hands-on
docking practice program on an Island Packet sailing yacht to help all cruising sailors, whether
experienced or beginner, to learn the best methods for docking.
Students who successfully
complete this course and written exam will
receive the ASA118 Docking Endorsement certificate.
Two-day sessions are scheduled aboard an Island
Packet 32 foot yacht on the following dates:
| Apr 24-25 |
June 12-13 |
Oct 9-10 |
| May 8-9 |
July 17-18 |
