::Delete I have not found any secondary sources that back up the claims made in the article (i.e. that it is the predominant standards bearer for sailing the Americas). World Sailing seems to be the international body that actually sets standards for the sport, and US Sailing is the member org for the united states. Article seems more promotional to direct people to schools from American sailing which I expect is how they make their money. Anonrfjwhuikdzz (talk) 15:35, 4 May 2025 (UTC)

:Delete Not seeing coverage in independent sources. I am sure they are good at sailing certifications, but the page does read like an advertisement than an encyclopedic entry. Could not think of an adequate redirect. Ramos1990 (talk) 07:19, 18 May 2025 (UTC)
