Description:

Embark on a 1.5-hour sailing adventure aboard our Marshall 22' Catboat, designed for accessibility, comfort, and education. Featuring wheelchair access, a Hoyer lift, and 5-point harness seats offering trunk support, participants of all abilities can safely enjoy the thrill of sailing on the open water. Stop! Before registering a sailing participant, you must also register aids and caregivers so that we have an accurate headcount of all persons planning to sail. 

Our program is built on inclusivity, ensuring memorable experiences for everyone. Specialized accommodations are tailored to individual needs upon request.

Student to Aid Ratio: To ensure the highest safety standards and maximum comfort for our participants, Adaptive Sailing adheres to the following Student-to-Aid ratios:

• Wheelchair Participant: One participant per one capable aid. A capable aid is someone who can provide significant assistance in moving the participant into and out of the sailboat.
• Mobile Student: Two students per one aid. A mobile student is someone who requires minimal assistance to get into and out of the sailboat.

Don't see a time that works for you? We are committed to getting you on the water and accommodating any specific needs you may have. Give us a call or email us to discuss a time that will work for you.

Please note: Sails are subject to cancellation due to weather conditions.
