Three dear people made sizeable donations to Able Sail Toronto in the past few weeks. I am touched beyond words, and grateful for your generosity.
There is a lovely idea in the Celtic tradition that if you send out goodness from yourself, or if you share that which is happy or good within you, it will all come back to you multiplied ten thousand times. In the kingdom of love there is no competition, there is no possessiveness or control. The more love you give away, the more love you will have.
This is an excerpt from the book "Anam Cara", written by John O'Donohue
Sending you love on this Valentine's Day, and always.

Welcome back Louisa! We are absolutely thrilled to welcome Louisa back to the Able Sail Toronto team for her second year! 🎉⛵️ She is so excited to meet everyone this upcoming season.

Louisa is a lifelong sailor and racer, having gained experience on boats both big and small, including racing for the National Yacht Club 🌊. She loves connecting with people and has a strong background in volunteering with various organizations.

Over the past few summers, Louisa has worked at yacht clubs across Toronto, dedicating herself to improving her skills and qualifications—she is currently focusing on working toward her commercial captain license! ⚓️📜

Louisa finds sailing unique in the perseverance and mental fortitude it requires. She believes her own sailing experiences have helped shape the person she is today, and it means a lot to her to be able to help others enjoy the sport. We couldn't agree more with her sentiment: there's really nothing better than being out on the water on a lovely summer day! ☀️😊

Please join us in giving Louisa a warm welcome back for a fantastic 2026 season!
