Marine Weather University

Are you ready to raise your weather IQ?

Every sailor understands the importance of weather. But how many of us over-use weather apps when we know there is so much more to the art and science of weather forecasting? ASA co-founder Peter Isler and legendary sailing meteorologist Chris Bedford have created a new online school, Marine Weather University (MWU) to help sailors build that crucial foundation and hone their weather skills.
