I have seen sailing boats modified for disabled people. Has anyone seen a windsurfer? I imagine it would require stabilizer pontoons and an uphaul frame rather than rope. Part time, I build wheelchair ramps and install occupational therapy equipment. I get to meet some people whose lives could do with a thrill we all take for granted. Anyone seen anything like this?

I have seen that guy in Maui - it's like a small catamaran- but it's being sailed with a windsurfer rig by someone else, rather than by him.

If you could design a way that a disabled person could windsurf, you would be an absolute legend!

I have seen many disabled skiers -and they are really awesome with what they can do.

I saw a setup out sailing a couple of weeks back, it was a very small / narrow catamaran with a blokart rig on it, and a fixed seating position. The hulls were molded, but I can't say that the whole setup was an official 'manufactured' product. It did look ideal for a less agile sailor though, provided they didn't capsize it.

Not quite a wheelchair windsurfer, but I wonder just how much of this already physical pastime can be replicated for the less-able before it becomes something else entirely? (like a cat/trimaran with an unstayed rig...)

Unfortunately I didn't get a close look at it as we were already late getting in, and had to pack up in a hurry to avoid any further "repercussions" at home!
