Prerequisite: Hoofer Sailing Club Member, J 24 light rating or heavy keelboat crew rating. 

The ASA 101 Test-out is an opportunity to demonstrate your sailing maneuvers in a sloop-rigged keelboat approximately 20-27 feet in length in light to moderate winds and sea conditions in familiar waters without supervision .

Check this link to see the complete ASA Standards you are expected to know to test-out for this course.

This year the "On-the water test-outs" will be held October 1st - 11th and will be conducted from the J-24 fleet. Usually each test-out will consist of 2 to 4 students and last about 3 hours depending on the weather.

Cost: $170 students, $200 Faculty/Staff and Union Members.  Payment must be submitted prior to the on-the-water test-out.

This course includes the publications,  "Sailing Made Easy".  It will be available for pick-up after the on-the-water test-outs. We expect the publications to be available by mid-October. The publication instructor reviews and written exam (100 question multiple choice) will be held in late October and early November. More information will be given during the on-the water test-out. The ASA logbook will be issued to you upon completion of the course.

 

When directed you will be able to register and pay the fees for the test-out at the Outdoor UW Office, or by phone by calling 608-262-1630. 

Keep in mind, all the on-the-water test-outs are dependent on the weather. We can complete 3-4 students in about 3 hours if we have good steady wind; however, we may need to make arrangements for additional sessions if the wind calms or is from the south. Sail landings at the pier is especially a difficult maneuver to test with the south wind issues. Please note: the schedule posted above represents potential available times for testing for the ASA testing program. The instructor will contact you to schedule your individual on-the-water test-out times.
