Mission: Serve Wounded Service Members and First Responders by combining
ecotherapy and adaptive sports with blue water sailing. Follow that with education and / or training in fields that support their interests and Old Dog Sailing operations.

Intent: Facilitate life altering empowerment to Wounded Service Members and First Responders through sailing. Create conditions for emotional / ntellectual / physical / spiritual “re-discovery”, growth, and empowerment.

Concept:
Form Crews of 4-6 Wounded Service Members / First Responders. Train Crews to sail using a standardized program of instruction (POI) over an 8-day period. Conduct initial training on a 25ft sloop. Conduct the body of training on a 55-65ft catamaran in the Bahamas or the aribbean, to the level that the Crews are sailing the last leg of the cruise by themselves under supervision.
