Construction of an adaptive boat is underway for the Challenge Mountain Adaptive Watersports Program! The wonderful folks at the Great Lakes Boat Building School and Challenge Mountain are currently working on a 20 foot adaptive sailboat. This is hull #1 of the new "Challenge Mountain Class". It is truly unique, designed from scratch by professional boat designers with the help of Challenge Mountain's expertise with adaptive sports.
It is through the support of our Boating Community that things like this can happen.....Thank you! Projects like this are not inexpensive. They will need standing and running rigging in addition to many other items. They hope to have the boat fitted out and sailing in the summer of 2009. Please contact us below if you think you can help with funding or equipment.
We will try to keep you current via this page with pictures and information.
We are excited at the prospect that our efforts will help in providing a platform on which anyone can enjoy our sport, regardless of their challenges.
