ASA 111 Sailing Review

ASA 111 Sailing Review

The ASA 111 Sailing Review is an individualized, goal-oriented session designed to refresh your skills, boost your confidence, and update your official American Sailing Association record. ASA certificates do not expire, but skills, judgment, and confidence do. If it has been a while since you've actively sailed and you would like to enroll in your next ASA course, the ASA 111 session is the perfect way to verify your current competence and meet your prerequisite recency needs.

This 4-hour, on-the-water session allows you to work one-on-one with an instructor to review specific maneuvers, docking, or safety procedures tailored entirely to your training track (Sportboat vs Cruising). The goal is verification of your current competence, not re-certification. 


The ASA 111 is for you if:

  • You have successfully completed the ASA course in the past, and would like to refresh your skills to the course standard.
  • It has been a while since you've actively sailed and you would like to enroll in the next ASA course. ASA 111 can be used to meet the recency requirements for the course prerequisite.

What We Consider "Active Sailing"/Modern Sailing's Recency Requirement:

  • On-the-water sailing on keelboats as the skipper or crew member
  • Instructional sailing at a sailing school
  • Documented private or club sailing (in your logbook or by submitting a Sailing Resume)

Note: Visit the ASA course page for more information on the skills required for competency, or the terms of recency for the prerequisite. You can easily find any specific course page by typing the course name or number into the "search text" bar at the top of this page. Additionally, ASA 111 session will count as one day towards your 6 on-the-water days for ASA 104 prerequisite.

    I took ASA 101 with them recently. They have the best customer service I've ever seen! I mistyped my address when I signed up online so didn't receive the textbook. I called and the lady immediately sent me another copy! Everyone at the club is super friendly.

  • John Kipping

    The meeting room was quite adequate and the location most convenient, but the course outline and instruction were outstanding. Modern Sailing is fortunate to have such a well organized instructor in Mr. Stan Lander who teaches very well from a rich professional background. Mr. Lander was generous with his time and patiently in helping students who needed more attention or time in understanding various aspects of the curriculum.

  • John Clark

    Every aspect of Modern Sailing - training, syllabus, course materials, quality of the boats, quality of the instructors, and the very friendly and helpful staff - exceeded my expectations. Modern Sailing has a first class sailing program in an environment with challenging winds and currents. I look forward to coming back to charter a boat and certainly plan to continue my sailing training.

  • Steve Hood, Basic Coastal Cruising

    I would definitely recommend Modern Sailing to anyone who is interested in learning to sail the right way.

    Thumbs up to (Club Skipper) Geoff (Love) and his wife Laura. I went on my first Club Sail on Sunday, January 18, 2026. They were terrific!
