N.P.O Sailing the Life

We are the largest and friendliest organization in town!

Sailing
Our goal is to encourage all
people with disabilities from
our city and surrounding
counties, to try the unique
sport of sailing and enjoy
everything that our great
blue sea has to offer.

Our objective is not to create


super-champions, but rather
give a chance to those people
that nature or luck was not on
their side, to try things that
until now ware difficult or
impossible to do.

We believe that improving


everyone's or their familys
psychology will give them a
better perspective in life and a
more optimistic and happy
future.
