Information for Sailors

Nab1_sailingDart Sailability welcomes all people with disabilities to come and enjoy sailing and boating on the river Dart. We have specially adapted boats that enable most people to take part in sailing. These include a Nab Dory that can take people in their wheel chairs, two keel boats with adapted seats and 8 Access 303 sailing dinghies which you can be transferred into from a wheel chair.

We operate on Tuesdays and Saturday’s from 14th May to 25th September. If you are interested in a free taster session please contact the Coordinator.

Dart Sailability is a Royal Yachting Association approved training centre and is the Centre of Excellence in the Southwest of England. We maintain a high standard of safety and are inspected annually.
