Venture Sports:
Powerboat course in Dun Laoghaire |
We run basic introductory courses in Powerboating in Dun Laoghaire, Co.Dublin for people with a spinal cord injury. Our boat is specially adapted for wheelchair users to drive.
The Powerboat has become a very important and popular activity in the Spinal Injuries Venture Programme. It is located down in Dun Laoghaire Marina and participants can go on trips around Dublin Bay. It goes out every Monday evening at 6pm and the 3rd Sunday of the month at 1pm. (weather permitting).
The boat is accessible through a hydraulic lift that will lift you and lower you on to the Rigid Inflatable Boat. Spinal Injuries Ireland provide waterproof gear and life jacket but encourage you to wear warm clothing, it is Ireland after all! The trip lasts about 2 hours taking in a visit to see some shoreline wildlife. Occasionally we are graced with basking sharks and dolphins on warm days.
Call Paul or Gar on 01 2355317 or email us at info@spinalinjuries.ie. We look forward to having you aboard! |
