Membership - American Sail Training Association

Member Vessels & Organizations

More than 250 opportunities for adventure and education under sail!

From coastal cruising with gourmet cooking to blue water voyaging, these ships are all in the business of enrichment. As diverse an agenda as this may seem at first glance, all provide sail training. The common denominator is that each uses the wind and sea to teach us something else. Sail training, like reading, is not a subject in and of itself. It is a means to an end. A medium. An environment. We at ASTA often say that sail training is not learning to sail, it is learning from sailing. From the ship, from the sea and perhaps most importantly, from yourself.
