Disabled Sailing Association of Alberta

The lakes and oceans of Canada serve as a great healer and equalizer, where our sailors leave their wheelchairs (and their disabilities) behind, and enjoy the independence and freedom that everyone enjoys when wind, sun and spray join forces to make a perfect sailing day.
