We’re inclusive of people with all abilities. We don’t separate the disabled people from the able body people. Because once you’re in the boat and you’re with other people, you’re basically on the same level...

In the future, we would really like to expand the program. This is just the beginning.

It’s a great feeling to be recognized for doing something different in the sailing community.

I got a great reception from the crowd. It felt really good to know other people look at what we are doing as a positive thing in the community.

What makes the program unique is how the club is inclusive of people of all abilities in the ASU community. Disabled and able-bodied sailors sail side-by-side as one team.
