Martin 16 sailboat

Martin 16 sailboat The Martin 16 sailboat is a One-Design race boat and recreational day sailor for all ages and levels of experience.

The Canadian designed and built Martin 16 sailboat allows children and adults with physical disabilities the possibility of leaving their wheelchair or other mobility device and go sailing. these sailboats are designed to enable people with all levels of disability to enjoy sailing as a recreation activity or competitive sport. Sailing is unique in that physically disabled people can compete one on one against able bodied people - it levels the playing field.

Mobility Cup is a “regatta of possibility” where personal, social, geographic, technological and organizational barriers are challenged in the spirit of friendly competition. The purpose of the Mobility Cup Regatta is held annually in various Canadian cities, which can span from British Columbia to Nova Scotia, and here we demonstrate that sailing is an inclusive, accessible and integrated sport/recreation available to all persons.
Mobility Cut 2024 is being held right now in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia, at Lunenburg Yacht Club.
The hospitality here is fabulous, the scenery is spectacular and yesterday we say lots of porpoises!
Sailors representing Able Sail Toronto are - Tracy Schmitt, Ron Buckle, Quinto Zimmerman, Elaine Gate and Fred Knox.
Cheer them on!
