An important requirement for the ASI Level 2 Keel Boat program is that you complete and present a certificate showing completion of US Power Squadron or US Coast Guard Auxiliary Safe Boating / Basic Seamanship course before the start of Level 2 classes. The class must have a navigation component. The class must be completed before you start the Level 2 class which is March 1, 2011. You are advised to take the course now because the course has limited or no availability in January. Any questions call Bill Lane 248-891-6125 or wjl6355@gmail.com

This includes a $20 registration fee to Washtenaw Community College, the program manager for building use, security, IT services, etc. It also includes $35 fee to the Ann Arbor Sail and Power Squadron. This provides the student manual + 2 CDs. One CD is electronic charts which I hope to teach. The other CD is an animated and voice CD which covers the entire course so you can do it on your computer but I hope that students will read the manual.
