MISSION STATEMENT
The
mission of the Anguilla Sailing Association (ASA) is to be the premiere
organization for sailing and sailing activities in Anguilla and to include
everyone who is interested in the fun, challenge, and competition of sailing and
boat racing. The Association wants to allow people to experience sailing through
a hands-on approach and tie this experience in with the history and traditions
of sailing in the Anguillian culture.
Through
activities sponsored by the ASA, people of all ages will be able to experience
the sport of sailing while gaining technical knowledge through interaction with
experienced sailors, guest instructors and, more importantly, Anguillians with
a great wealth of knowledge of the waters and wind conditions that surround the
island and the Caribbean in general.
Membership
is open to both local and foreign yacht clubs, individuals, companies and
corporations who wish to participate in the development of sailing in Anguilla.
Our
primary objective is to raise funds through activities, such as the regatta and
tax exempt donations through The Anguilla Community Foundation, in order to
support the Anguilla Youth Sailing Club (AYSC) and sailing school based on the
internationally successful Optimist sailing program
The ASA is recognized by the Government of Anguilla and the Caribbean Sailing Association as the organizing authority for the annual Anguilla Regatta.
LOCATION
The
ASA and AYSC Clubhouse is located at the north end of Sandy Ground beach, next
to Irie Life and Body and Soul. This building serves as the
headquarters for the Annual Anguilla Regatta and the Optimist Sailing School
