The ACA(UK) is the Class Association for all UK Access boats, this includes the Access 2.3 one and two person, the Access 303 one and two person, the Access Liberty and the Access Skud 18. The management of the Skud 18, being a paralympic class, is under the direction of a subsidiary committee called The Skud CA(UK). Throughout this website the Skud business is given separate dedicated pages under the main navigation headings. 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.
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.
