Developing Lifejackets Specifically for Individuals with Adaptive Needs



The ACA is proud to partner with U.S. Sailing and the C. Thomas Clagett, Jr. Memorial Clinic & Regatta on a Bonnell Cove Foundation grant program to assist individuals of all abilities with lifejacket performance and designs.

If you are, or know of someone who is a paddler with a physical or cognitive disability, please consider taking a few moments to fill out this short online survey:

Survey deadline is Friday, September 11th.
  

The next phase of this grant program will be to conduct on-water testing of various lifejackets with the ultimate goal of recommending performance improvements to manufacturers and regulatory entities.

Thank you for your time and consideration of providing valuable feedback for this project.
