By combining 20 years of Bethwaite experience, research and technology and Chris Mitchell's of Access Dinghies unique understanding and ideology of sailing for people with disabilities and without disAbilities, the result is the innovative 'lead assisted skiff' (LAS), the SKUD18. SKUD18 is a strict one design class with two sailors seated on the centerline for Paralympics competition or a combination of hiking out and trapezing for able-body participants. For those who do not wish to hike out or trapeze this boat will do that to. The SKUD 18 can either be your ultimate racing or cruising dinghy.

The SKUD 18 is capable of carrying weight while maintaining a high level of performance and control, keeping the cost down and incorporating a range of interesting features that allows easy stacking/containerisation, simple maintenance and general ease of use. The boat will be a challenge for able-bodied and disabled sailors alike. This boat has been designed from a performance basis, to offer scintillating, crisp and snappy response to sailors regardless of their ability/mobility.'

Mitchell, designer of Access Dinghies product line continued, 'The UD18 is very versatile and can be handled by a variety of crew configurations. The helmsman can transfer manually and be steering with tillers, or be in a fixed seat on the centerline using a manual joystick, push/pull rods, or a servo assist joystick with full control of all functions. The forward crew can either be on the centerline, transferring manually, or using a swinging seat. Or both crew could be mobile riding trapeze. As its name says, the SKUD18 is of Universal Design and can be sailed by all levels of physical ability.
Notice the bow launch port for easy launching and retrieval of the spinnaker.

Access 2.3 Has a 33-lb. ballast (15kg) centerboard and is steered with a joystick. The ease of operation of the joystick and the stability of the 33-lb. ballast (15kg) centerboard brings the thrills and pleasures of sailing to those with a broad spectrum of disabilities. There is an optional electric servo drive for the steering and sheet winch which opens up sailing to even high level quads (offered only with the single seater). The ballast means it cannot capsize, and is self righting if knocked down in a violent gust. This design is suitable for all people with disabilities, the very young, their parents and their grandparents.

revolutionary Access Breeze is a delight to sail and is so easy to manage that it opens up sailing to everyone. The Access Breeze is designed for that huge majority of the population who would love to have a go at sailing, but find it too difficult to do so. Rotomoulded construction means the Breeze is virtually indestructible.

Family fun boat. The Breeze gives novice sailors instant access to the water as it is nearly impossible to capsize. Carrying two, seated side by side, the Breeze is an inexpensive family fun boat which can be sailed by the whole family, from young children, through to their grandparents. Children, 6 - 10 years old find the stability and ease of sailing an Access Breeze irresistible.

Fully accessible sailing systems for resorts, camps and clubs. The new Access Breeze is the perfect resort fun boat where holiday makers are able to master the basics in minutes.

* NOTE: The stability of an Access Dinghy relies on the body weight of a sailor being kept low in the boat, thereby lowering the center of gravity. It is therefore recommended that sailors weighing over 220 lbs. should sail the larger Access 303 or Skud 18.
