Come enjoy an afternoon of sailing on Lake Champlain with us this summer. We’ll be out on Sunday through Thursday sailing from 1 PM to 3 PM, with access to two Martin 16 sailboats.   The Martin 16 is a 1 on 1 learn to sail so that means caregivers and aids/families are not able to participate with them. Please keep this in mind when considering this program.
Contact Program Coordinator Betsy Hoffmeister at [email protected] for details and reservations.
About the Martin 16
The Canadian designed and built Martin 16 is a boat that allows children and adults with physical disabilities the possibility of leaving their wheelchair or other mobility device behind and going sailing! Even individuals with weak arms or no use of their arms can sail independently using power assist technology.
As it names suggests, the Martin 16 is 16 feet long – the size of many small sailboats. But unlike other boats, the Martin 16 has been specially designed to meet the needs of sailors with disabilities.
