ASA 106 & 108

[LivinMyDream]

Where can I purchase the ASA 106 & 108 courses? ASA site does not offer them for purchase and I do not find them anywhere else online yet. I do not want to spend the money at a Sailing School for the certification only want to read. Thank you.

You can purchase 105 as it is all book work. ASA 106 and 108 are both hands on "on the boat" training and don't really have much book training. I don't even recall having any book for either of them. 105 is the book training part of navigation and 106 is the actual doing it on the boat. 107 is the book training and 108 is the actual doing of offshore. It has been a while since I took them, but only remember books for 105 and 107 and instructor sign offs for 106 and 108.

Take a look at various schools. You will see Rousmaniere's book used for 106: https://www.amazon.com/Annapolis-Boo.../dp/1451650191
