The Royal Mysore Sailing Club (RMSC) and the Karnataka State Sailing Association (KSSA), under the aegis of the Yachting Association of India (YAI), are proud to announce the Asian Inclusive Sailing Series (AISS), to be held from October 8 to 14, 2025, at the RMSC facilities on the picturesque KRS backwaters.

A Historic First for India

Endorsed by World Sailing, this landmark event hosted by India for the first time, will see 30 para sailors from 13 Asian nations compete alongside able-bodied sailors, reaffirming the region’s commitment to inclusive sports. With participation from emerging and established sailing nations alike, AISS stands as a powerful testament to accessibility, equity, and international camaraderie.

“This initiative reflects our strategic goal to strengthen para inclusive sailing across Asia. We commend India’s leadership and look forward to the meaningful impact the Series will bring to the region.”
— Fiona Kidd, Head of International Development at World Sailing

The competition will feature Hansa 303 and Hansa 203 class boats, supported by Mysuru’s reliable October weather with temperatures ranging from 21–30°C and average wind speeds of 9–14 km/h — ideal for fair and exciting racing.
