Adaptive Sailing 
Our Adaptive Sailing course is thoughtfully designed to meet the unique needs of each individual or group. Each class is structured to ensure personalized attention and safety, typically including one student, one caregiver, and an instructor per boat - though this may be adjusted based on the comfort, abilities, and preferences of the participants and instructor.

Depending on the group and weather conditions, adaptive sessions may include sailing, kayaking, or a combination of both. For those who prefer to stay on land, we offer opportunities to enjoy the beach and participate in engaging shore-based activities.

We encourage each participant to grow at their own pace - challenging themselves, building confidence, and discovering a love for the water in a supportive, inclusive environment. We look forward to sharing a fun and safe day on the water with you!

We're also committed to expanding our network of partners who serve individuals with physical and cognitive disabilities. If you know a group that may be interested in collaborating, please have them contact us at info@gbsail.org or 920-393-1983. We’re happy to reach out directly if you'd like to make a connection.


Cost:
$975 per three-hour session. We can accomodate groups up to 32 participants, however for high-need individuals we recommend 16 as the ideal group size (8 participants + 8 caregivers). We'll work with you - whatever the size. Contact us at info@gbsail.org or 920-393-1983.
