Recognition opportunities:
The Disabled Sailing Association
recognizes the valuable contributions of our sponsors in a variety
of ways. Because our boats are extremely visible in the waters
around Vancouver, we are proud to display our sponsors' names
and logos on our sails, and / or boat.
Further, we recognize our sponsors
in our regular publications and our promotional materials related
to special events. We have also given recognition to our sponsors
on our permanent signage at the Jericho
Sailing Centre, which is a high-traffic area during the summer
season.
The unique nature of the Disabled
Sailing Association is that our programs always attract significant
media attention. The Martin 16 fleet will be cruising English
Bay through the summer and will also be involved in several high
profile cup races and regattas.

Reach for Hawaii 2007:
DSA volunteers help our programs in a variety of ways. In 2007,
Chris Hui, who had volunteered with DSA over the previous three summers, decided
to sail his 32’ sloop Solar Coaster to Hawaii to raise awareness
of the work of the DSA – and inspire others to support us,
too.
His efforts have brought people and organizations together and
had an impact on community sailing. WestJet, for whom Chris is
a pilot, donated two tickets to anywhere they fly in Canada.
People who made a donation to the DSA had a chance to win
these tickets.
West Marine held a Reach for Hawaii weekend
at their Vancouver store, 1601 West 2nd Ave,
on May 5 and 6, in honour of Chris’ journey and to help raise
further awareness of the DSA.
