Our Mission
The Impossible Dream, a universally accessible catamaran, is dedicated to raising awareness of barrier-free design and improving the quality of life for disabled persons through sailing.
2024 Summer Voyage
The moment that we have been working toward has finally arrived. The Impossible Dream will depart on her 10th annual Summer Voyage of the entire East Coast!
Join us online and in-person as we sail to over one dozen ports taking disabled persons sailing. You can follow our adventures on our Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube Channel!

Summer Voyage
Our 2024 Summer Voyage will offer in person opportunities to experience the joy of sailing for groups of individuals, and we will be welcoming our followers and guests onboard virtually to travel, share, and experience our adventures together on the water.
Racing For Awareness
The Impossible Dream competes in highly competitive international and domestic races with mixed ability crews to bring awareness of her mission and open people’s minds to the capabilities of disabled persons.
Winter at Shake-A-Leg
When not sailing the East Coast, the Impossible Dream is based at Shake-A-Leg Miami, one of the most accessible community boating centers in the world. From this base, the Impossible Dream introduces disabled persons, their families, and others to the joy of sailing and to assist disabled persons to improve their quality of life
Rehabilitation Partners
The Impossible Dream also partners with the country’s leading rehabilitation hospitals, disability advocacy groups, and spinal cord injury research institutions to inspire individuals with disabilities and to bring awareness to accessible design.
Visit our YouTube Channel
The Impossible Dream has a Youtube Channel! Now, along with our weekly Chair Yoga classes, we will be periodically posting video blogs created by our crew on board Impossible Dream!
Watch our Latest Adventures on our new YouTube Channel!
Our preselected crew, consisting of sailors with and without disabilities, will work together to sail the Impossible Dream. Along the way, they will be documenting our journey and the individual stories of our crew and partners via our new YouTube Channel and social media pages. They will tell the stories of adventuring on a completely universally accessible sailing catamaran.
