Accessibility begins before boarding

The route from the vehicle to the dock, gangway width, steps, surface conditions and distance to the boat can all matter. Ask for details about the exact meeting point and boarding process.

Ask about the vessel itself

Confirm whether a wheelchair can remain onboard, whether there is a step or ladder to board, the available seating and whether a restroom is accessible. Many small boats have narrow passages and limited space.

Describe the support you need

Tell the operator the wheelchair type, whether the passenger can transfer to a seat, whether assistance is required and any other relevant mobility considerations. Do not rely on a general statement such as accessible or easy boarding.

Get confirmation before paying

Request written confirmation from the operator after they have checked the assigned vessel and dock. If the operator cannot safely accommodate the passenger, ask about alternatives rather than arriving and discovering the limitation at the marina.
