Adaptive Sailing

Welcome back for year five of Adaptive Sailing! This year we are hosting one-time events on Tuesday and Thursday evenings in the summer, as well as Tuesday evenings in the spring and fall (May and September). We will spend the entire class time on the water sailing (and having dance parties!).

  • Taught in 23′ Sonar Keelboats, 4 – 5 sailors per boat

  • Sailors will split into two boat groups: one group will participate in a more structured class with lessons and skill practice, and the other group will be along for the therapeutic, peaceful ride of sailing. Both are great! Our hope is to meet sailors where they are and ensure the best opportunity for all.

Adaptive sailing is for sailors with special needs of any age or ability.

For a 10% discount, register for all sessions in a segment: All (4) May Sessions, All (9) Summer Tuesday Sessions, All (9) Summer Thursday Sessions, or All (6) Fall Sessions.

The LMSS mission is to ignite a passion for the lifetime sport of sailing. Our Adaptive Program creates a fun learning environment that allows individuals with intellectual, developmental, and cognitive differences to experience the freedom of sailing.

Note: LMSS does not have a wheelchair lift. Participants must be able to take the LMSS shuttle pontoon to Lighthouse Island, where the sailing school is located. With questions, please email office@lmss.us.

Save the date: Adaptive Sailing Summer Celebration! Thursday, August 14, 5-7PM. All Adaptive sailors who attend at least one session in the 2025 season and their families are invited to celebrate the summer with an evening of sailing, popsicles, and socializing.
