Aims of the Gannetsway Sailing Association (GSA)

1) Provide members with opportunities for seafaring under sail.

2) Manage and eventually own the 13.6m schooner Anna M.

3) Research and develop alternatives to diesel fuel, particularly the sail/electric concept, whereby the propeller recharges batteries when under sail, also marine applications of hydrogen fuel cells, with a view to possibly commissioning new-builds along similar lines, including a coastal fishing boat.

4) Provide a platform for any marine research, observation and stewardship, particularly of the Shannon dolphins.

5) Foster relationships between seafarers and coastal communities, particularly on Atlantic coasts.
