Practice Sail Program:

Nockamixon Sailing School Practice Sailing Programs:

After you complete ASA101 and/or ASA103, ASA recommends that each ASA level be augmented with 25-30 hours of practice, but many students do not have access to a sailboat to practice on.  If you want more helm time before taking the next class, before chartering, before purchasing your own sailboat, or if it has been a while since you took your last class, one of our two Practice Sailing Programs described below may be what you need to turn you into a confident sailor. With either Practice Sail Program, you do not have to take the written test, so it is all fun and great practice.

In addition to our own alumni, students from other ASA affiliated sailing schools are welcome to participate in Nockamixon Sailing School Practice Sail Programs.  We allow this because we feel confident that once they experience the quality of our classes, they will not want to go anywhere else.

These two unique Practice Sail Programs are enough reason without any other considerations for any serious student to choose Nockamixon Sailing School for their sailing education.  

Group Practice Sail Program: 

Once you get ASA certified for ASA101 or ASA103 from any ASA Affiliated Sailing School, you can retake the same class for 50% off the Nockamixon Sailing School list price for the same class.

Group Practice Sail students are mixed into our Group ASA Sailing Classes with first-time students but do not need to retake the written test, so it is all about helm time and fun.

You can participate in the Practice Sailing Program on any date shown on the Schedule page for group classes unless the class is already full.

At Nockamixon Sailing School you can sign up even months in advance for any class shown on the Schedule page of our website so long as the class is not already full. 

Please visit the Classes, Prices, Schedules, and Shop page to find out if a class date is available and sign up.

Private Practice Sail Program:

If you would prefer not to retake ASA101 or ASA103 with first time students, and just want sail time with an instructor on board who simply monitors what you are doing and offers advice when needed, our Private Practice Sail Program may be what you are looking for to gain more practice on the water sailing.

Sail with a competent sailing instructor and USCG Captain. 

1-4 students are allowed for the same price.

One full day minimum is required.  No partial days. 

Classes typically go from 10:00 am – 4:00 pm but other times are available if preferred.

Private Practice Sail Program Classes available weekdays only.

At Nockamixon Sailing School you can sign even months in advance so long as our sailboat and captain are available.

If you are a group of 1-4 sailors who want to sign up for a Private Practice Sail Program Day, please contact Nockamixon Sailing School at 215-499-0335 or Captainmike@nockamixonsailingschool.com to pick out a date or dates for a Private Practice Sail.
