Sailing at the Summer Paralympics
- Sailing at the Summer Paralympics
Sailing has been an official part of the Summer Paralympic Games since 2000, after being a demonstration sport in 1996.
At the sport's 1996 debut, it consisted of only one event, mixed crewboat. Since then, at the 2000 and 2004 games, two events have been competed: mixed single person 2.4mr and mixed three person Sonar.
