In short form this is the Basic Keelboat Test-out.<\/li>\n<li>If a veteran chooses a Family &amp; Friends option for Basic Keelboat, the $50 discount is repeated for each family member.<\/li>\n<li>If a veteran has immediate youth family members ages 8-18, the $50 discount may also be extended to our Youth Camp or Teen Keelboat Camp.<\/li>\n<li>If a veteran chooses a Caribbean Vacation Course which includes Basic Keelboat, the discount applies and will be repeated for immediate family members.<\/li>\n<li>Veterans must register with American Sailing Association, ASA, at <a href=\"https:\/\/americansailing.com\/community\/veterans\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">americansailing.com\/community\/veterans<\/a> to be eligible for the program.
