For ASA Sailing Schools

ASA Booking Software
built for how sailing schools actually run.

Schedule courses, take bookings, issue ASA certifications, track your instructors, and run fleet operations — all in one platform. The full ASA curriculum is pre-loaded, from ASA 101 to Offshore Passagemaking. So is everything you’ve been doing in spreadsheets.

One boat, three courses, one week — capacity shared, no double-booking.

The whole ASA curriculum, pre-loaded.

Every ASA standard — ASA 101 Basic Keelboat through Offshore Passagemaking, plus Bareboat Cruising, Coastal Navigation, Cruising Catamaran and the endorsements — ready to schedule. Add your own non-ASA courses alongside.

Why ASA schools switch

Three reasons ASA schools pick Broad Reach.

01

Built for the ASA workflow.

Most booking tools were built for hotels and gyms. The sailing-specific bits — skill check-offs, ASA certifications, instructor tracking, boat maintenance — are first-class here, not bolt-ons.

02

Replaces six tools, not augments them.

Online booking, payments, calendar, certifications, waivers, instructor portal, student portal, email and SMS automation. One platform, one bill, one place your data lives.

03

Pricing that matches your size.

1.75% platform fee on bookings. No monthly fees. No per-booking caps. Quiet months cost nothing. Busy weeks are still profitable. See pricing →

ASA booking software — questions we get asked.

Does it handle multi-course, multi-boat scheduling?

Yes. You can run an ASA 101 and an ASA 104 off the same dock, share an instructor across two boats, and stack a coastal nav class on the same week. Conflicts are caught at the point of saving.

Can students sign waivers and pay online?

Yes. Online payments via Stripe (card, Apple Pay, Google Pay), deposits and balances, digital waivers signed on any device with an audit trail. All wired up from day one.
