What are the organization's current programs, how do they measure success, and who do the programs serve?

Adaptive Sailing

Challenged Sailors San Diego has a fleet of eight Martin 16 sailboats and one SKUD 18 specifically designed for adaptive sailing.

We can rig the boat with a special Power Assist unit to enable both steering and trimming of the sails via a small electric joystick (similar to those often used on power wheelchairs) or a Sip and Puff mouthpiece.

Our facilities are accessible and equipped with a lift for transferring sailors from wheelchairs into the boat.

We serve participants of all ages with no fees. Most disabilities can be accommodated, including: Spinal Cord Injury, Amputation, Traumatic Brain Injury, Vision Impairment or Blindness, Hearing Impairment or Deafness, PTSD, Muscular Dystrophy, Multiple Sclerosis, Cerebral Palsy, Cognitive Impairment, Stroke, ALS. All experience levels (from none to advanced) are welcome.
