Making sailing accessible to all in the UK

Welcome to the website of the Access Class Association(UK) (ACA(UK).

Read below the vision and developing reality of the designer of the Access Dinghies, Chris Mitchell.

Access Dinghies were designed to appeal to that huge majority of the world's population who would love to have a go at sailing, but find it too difficult or uninviting to do so.
Whether as a recreation, a competitive sport or a therapeutic activity; the Access Dinghy design features allow total novices of any ability to sail with little or no tuition, nearly regardless of the conditions.
Around the world, Access Dinghies are introducing whole new communities to sailing. Apart from the development of revolutionary sailing craft and supportive equipment - Access Dinghy Sailing System (ADSS) also fosters the formation and development of the innovative "accessible sailing" network throughout the world.

This is the cause that the ACA(UK) has taken up, in a nutshell, Sailing for all (who want to) regardless of their physical, intellectual, emotional or financial status.

We hope you will find on this website all the information that you need to fully support your involvement in this cause with us. Whether as a Sailor, Organisor, Helper, Supporter or Sponsor we wish you all sucess.

We hope you enjoy this new website and find it of value.

It is our intension to continually improve the site so please give us feed back. send your comments to ron.sawford@btinternet.com
