Burghfield
Sailability have gained Foundation Status ensuring our facilities
are able to cope with the needs of our disabled sailors. Both male
and female toilets and changing facilities are provided, as well
as a lift to our club house functions room, bar and panoramic balcony.
We
have 3 pontoons, including a specially designed pontoon for wheel
chair users. This is fitted with a lifting winch to help our sailors
get aboard their boats direct from a wheelchair.
The
lake itself has over 200 acres of sailable water, dotted with the
occasional island. Water does not reach any deeper than 6 metres.
Full
safety boat cover is provided by our volunteers during Sailability
sessions in either our club rescue boats or our Pioner. There is
always a RYA Senior Instructor present.
