Was invited to go sailing this wknd.A local yacht club sets aside dates during summer to take disable folks sailing. over the years with fund raising events they have a lift at dockside.

When out in sail boat freinds and family get to follow along in a pontoon boat to take video and pix.

Will post pix after the wknd.
