Access The Sea, Inc.

Access The Sea hopes to make the disabled feel more "abled" in all aspects of their lives. Our mission is to make the joys of the sea accessible to all. We are currently accepting donations and sponsors for future voyages for people with disabilities and challenges.

Our founder, MaryAnne Hedrick, always had a love for  boating and fishing but in 1997 she was rendered paraplegic in a car accident. This didn't make her lose her love for the ocean. She now wants to share her joy of the ocean with other adults and children who may not believe such experiences are possible.

Each voyage costs $2000, but any donation is greatly appreciated. Each voyage includes up to 48 participants aboard a 4 hour cruise from the Riviera Beach Marina. The cruise is led by licensed captain Rich Brochu who provides all equipment and bait.
