This course is primarily an evaluation and testing of the skills that have been learned in the previous courses or other sail training experience. Students will review and practice their sailing skills in the first session then take a written test produced by US SAILING to demonstrate their knowledge. In the final sessions they will practice, then demonstrate their boat handling skills. Upon successful completion of the course and tests students will be certified to skipper tiller steered keelboats, up to 27’ in length, on familiar waters, in 5 - 15 knots of wind. They will also be provided with the US SAILING Basic Keelboat Certification Standards booklet, a one-year free membership to US SAILING, and an official US SAILING Logbook of Sailing. The Logbook will be signed by a US SAILING Certified Instructor and an official sticker will be inserted verifying the student’s certification.
