FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
The U.S. Coast Guard’s National On-Water Standards (NOWS) Program grant management team and the American Boat & Yacht Council (ABYC) are pleased to announce the release of the third and final free new comprehensive “How-to…” guide for designing On-Water instruction using the American National Standard (ANS) for On-Water recreational boat operation.  The SAIL Standard Technical Support Document (SAIL TSD) was developed to help reduce injuries, accidents and fatalities on our nation's waterways by assisting education providers, course developers and instructors in designing and implementing recreational Sailboating skills instruction and assessment that meets the ANS.

This document contains the most complete set of information and tools available to assist education providers develop courses that comply with the national standard for Sailboat instruction.  All recreational boating safety education providers, large and small, national or local, are encouraged to use the materials contained in the SAIL TSD to develop or enhance their entry-level On-Water instruction.
