Taichung ASA International Heavy Sailboat and Yacht Driving Certification Course
New Activity
Argo Taichung Port Yacht Marina
- ASA (American Sailing Association) is a globally renowned sailing training and certification system with high international recognition. It is suitable for students who want to learn sailing from scratch, or who plan to rent boats or go on long voyages abroad in the future.
- International Recognition: ASA certificates are widely accepted by charter companies and yacht clubs in over 40 countries worldwide, making them suitable for students who want to rent boats, participate in competitions, or go on long voyages abroad.
- Practical Operation-Oriented: Over 50% of the time is spent practicing on the boat, including departing from port, docking, anchoring, and long voyage planning, allowing students to truly master the skills.
- Small Class Teaching: The number of people per boat is limited to ensure that each student has enough time to operate the helm and sails.
