Building on the momentum of the inaugural Mobility Cup, 1992 saw the event become national. Once again it was held in Vancouver, BC . The difference was that the previous year it had been a local Vancouver event that just happened to attract out-of-town sailors; this year it grew in size and scope and was on its way to becoming a Canadian event. The main focus was on inspiring adaptive sailing programs elsewhere across Canada. “I see the Mobility Cup more for its importance in helping develop new adaptive sailing programs and furthering existing ones,” continues Sam. “Many people see it just as a high quality race, but for me, that is not the essence of the Mobility Cup, although it is a high quality, competitive event.” |
