We do this using special boats and equipment and having a positive approach:

About Us
CVSS is based at the Rickmansworth Aquadrome and has been since March of 2001.
During the Coronavirus Pandemic we were unable to sail at all during the 2020 season and most of the 2021 season. We restarted sailing during September and October 2021. However we are pleased to say that we have been able to restart sailing again with a full timetable in May 2022, having carefully carried out a full Covid risk assaessment, revised our procedures and having a range of PPA equipment available for those who wish to use it.
We share facilities with the Rickmansworth-based Bury Lake Young Mariners (BLYM). This enables activities for both organisations to thrive.
We are part of 'Sailability' the RYA’s national programme enabling people with disabilities to try sailing and take part regularly. RYA is the governing body for sailing in the UK.
