Athlete Training in St. Petersburg, Florida

As part of Sailability's commitment to excellence, we had arranged for a special training session in conjunction with the US Disabled Sailing Team in St. Petersburg, Florida. This ties in with our overall objective of preparing our sailors for the run-up towards Athens 2004 Paralympics.

Karim and Taufik; two of our best sailors were accompanied by Coach Michael Tan for this event. In addition to further enhancing their sailing skills by training and competing alongside the US Disabled Sailing Team, it also aided them in the preparation for the Disabled World Championships later in the year.
