Hello ASA friends and Family,
We are in an unprecedented time in the world and while the light at the end of the tunnel appears dark it is important to understand that we will overcome this Coronavirus outbreak together. Our community of sailors, instructors and schools always bands together in times of need. Today is no different. If you live on your boat be sure to look out for your fellow liveaboards and lend a helping hand if they need it. In your neighborhoods reach out to those who might need a helping hand or make sure to ask others for assistance if you yourself need something. While we must be socially distant we celebrate that we share a common love for the outdoors, the ocean and the sailing lifestyle. To that end, we should always support each other. The American Sailing Association is your neighborhood. It is a community of sailors. While we might not be right next door to each other we are here if you need to talk or laugh or even cry. Find us on Facebook and engage in discussion. Very soon, this will pass and we will be once again ready to take to the water.
