Formerly Bristol Sailability we aim to extend the opportunities we can offer to a greater number of people in Bristol, but we still keep the same ethos of challenging people and their perception of themselves through new activities that they will not have experienced and that offers a level playing field for all.
There are different ways we can enable individuals to go on the water, please look through the following options. Please be aware that sailing, canoeing and rowing are weather dependent and we reserve the right to cancel at any time if we consider the conditions are unsuitable. Powerboat Trips are currently limited to one hour in order to cope with demand during the new restrictions.

Admittedly, I did immediately capsize but it's all part of the learning process, and that is that, the worst that can happen is you get a bit wet!!
