Equipment

Picture hoistingAt Whitefriars Sailing 4 Disabled we have dinghies that cater for the needs of most disabled people. We have: "Challenger" trimarans that have been ingeniously adapted to enable us to take more people out on the water; Access 303's (1 and 2 man); Access 2.3's (1 and 2 man); Wayfarers (can take 4or 5 people).

Picture rescue boatApart from our fleet of boats we have special equipment to enable us to include people with very severe disabilities: hoists and servo-assist equipment. This means that people with no limb function could sail with the use of blow-suck controls. We also have a pontoon fitted with a hoist so that low-water doesn't prevent us from getting people sailing.
