Adaptive Sailing resources

Below is a collection of adaptive sailing resources from the internet arranged alphabetically. You may browse the resources, or search by key term or category using the tools available on the right side of the webpage.

The resource will continue to grow as more knowledge becomes available, and as suggestions are fielded. The goal of this resource is to be inclusive and helpful to programs and individuals looking to learn more about adaptive sailing.
