title: [Rehabilitative success of a social therapy sailing project].
abstract: This article wants to present figures about subsequent development of adolescents age fourteen to eighteen with behavioural disorders, who underwent a social therapeutic and educational treatment during a sailing tour, backed by German Federal Youth Welfare Act. 114 adolescents were investigated. The figures describe where they came from, their characteristics before and after the project and the drop outs. Finally a follow up study of 61 of the adolescents in the program can be presented. As a result it could be shown, that the adolescents were very unsufficiently described, that they were treated without success in other institutions before, and that they grew up under bad conditions. A fifth of them left the eight months program after three months. Within an average investigation time of three Years and two months more than half of the adolescents showed an improvement in at least one of the following criteria: further education, better social adaption, decrease of delinquency and further need of care in a psychiatric or educational institution.
