What if a participant is reluctant to board the boat or wants to return early?
Apprehension and reluctance can be very normal for participants, especially if they have no experience or familiarity with boats or the water. We exercise patience and gentle persuasion and find that participants will most likely overcome fears and eventually climb aboard. There is no reason to rush or feel hurried. We can allow sufficient time. It is very rare that a participant will want to return once out on the water. In fact, most want to spend more time. If attempts at consoling or persuading a participant to remain for the length of the Daysail are not successful, we will return to the dock. Our goals are to make the event as fun and therapeutic as possible for the participants and their families.
