I am trying to help a friend find a good place to live in Florida. Here is the deal he has a spinal cord injury (SCI) that has resulted in him using a wheelchair for mobility. It is a fairly high level SCI and so he needs help with transferring in and out of boats, cars, etc. Yet he is a very active sailor and sportsman.

He wants to live in a place that is warm and has access to sailing. He sails a Hobie 16 with Trapseats and wants to continue this activity in Florida, and so he needs to find a place with some H16 sailors and active fleet. And wants to live in a town that is known for being accessible to people with disAbilities.

So if any of you know of a place that would be accessible to persons with disabilities in activities of daily living and sailing that would be great!

He does not own a boat (yet) but we are trying to get the funding so at least he can take a set of Trapseats with him. Also, he has capsized already so he has been initiated and is not to afraid of doing it again.
