Dani Anglada Pich Founder Yes We Sail Barcelona, Spain

Biography

I’m a Merchant Navy Pilot and a Skipper. At 31 years old, I lost my vision in an accident on board. After a hard adaptation to my new reality, I sailed again. And I took a bold step forward by launching YES WE SAIL: A pioneering tech solution to empower people with sensory disabilities in sailing. A legacy of technology, social inclusion and sport.

On January 2018, while serving as an Officer on a 300-meter carrier, 500 miles off the Hawaiian Coast, an extinguisher exploded in my face, resulting in the complete loss of my sight. I was 31 years old. Some years later, with the invaluable collaboration of family, friends and key entities, I sailed again. And I founded Yes We Sail, a project to make nautical experiences accessible to blind individuals. Our tech solution and protocol aim to empower people with visual disabilities and build a legacy beyond blindness.
