We have a range of different boats for a varitey of different needs and style of sailing. We have Access boats which are perfect for individuals with physical disabilties as the boat is designed to have all controls within reach from the seating position and the boom goes over their head, prevenitng participants from having to move across the boat. We also hae larger boats which are perfect for small groups or participants with learning disabilities.
We also offer wheelchair accessible powerboat trips, allowing wheelchair users to easily come aboard and see bristol from the water. There will be two trips: 10:30 and 11:30. Please ensure you arrive 15 minutes before the boat trip as the boat cannot wait.
