World Sailing Inclusion Championships preparation for Team Canada 1 and 2 at Kingston Yacht Club last week. Chris Jonas and Ginny Duff took the helm, while Brian Arthur trimmed the main, Gary Butler trimmed the jib, and Theo Weber and Rhys Cashin guided the boats. Conditions were variable ranging from dead calm to 20+ kt gusts. A few bumps (personal and boat 😮) and bruises, but everyone seemed pleased with the outcome. Canada 1 even experienced sailing under spinnaker under Gary's tutelage
Thanks to KYC for allowing the teams to beat up their RS21s for 4 days and the numerous volunteers who dog sat and assisted Canada 2 as crew
The teams are off to Portimão shortly to start local practice on 1 Oct

🎉 We’re pleased to share that the Blind Sailing Association of Canada (BSAC) was recently approved to participate in charitable gaming fundraising in the City of Toronto!

BSAC is currently scheduled for one fundraising session each month at Dolphin Gaming, our assigned Charitable Gaming Centre. In June and July, our volunteers attended our first two sessions of 2026, helping raise funds to support our sailing programs and operations.

Funds raised through these sessions help cover important costs such as marine insurance, slip renewal fees, boat maintenance and upgrades, as well as sailing course and regatta registration fees.

⛵ Our next fundraising session at Dolphin Gaming is scheduled for September 21.

We thank Dolphin Gaming and the City of Toronto for this opportunity, and especially our dedicated volunteers for their time, effort, and continued support of accessible sailing in Canada!
