Its activities take place in Pointe-Claire but it offers support to its affiliated organizations that offer adapted sailing programs in the Gaspésie and Eastern Townships.

In memory of Patrick Flaherty
It is with sadness that we announce that our great friend and loyal supporter Patrick Flaherty passed away on May 5th. He was the co-founder and organizer of the annual event "Regatta for the AQVA" founded 11 years ago. This philanthropic regatta supports and makes possible the activities of the Association québécoise de voile adaptée (AQVA). Over the years, it has become the largest event of its kind in Quebec.
His departure is a great loss for our community and his work, which has a major impact on our sailor members, will now be carried on by his volunteer collaborators.

Rest in peace, dear Patrick!
