Travel organizer tips
What to pack
It is advised not to pack too many luggage, and if possible, a non-rigid suitcase. The most ideal would be a medium sized sports bag.
Shoes with white soles to walk on deck, and flipflops
Light waterproof jacket
Bathing suits, towel and multiple shirts
Sunscreen, sun caps and sunglasses
Toiletries
Casual clothing, one or two changes
The life on board
It is very important to maintain order on board, inside (personal items in common areas), on deck (cremes, towels, cameras, etc) and while sailing, to avoid accidents or items going overboard.
Try to save drinking water, the tanks are limited and it is preferable to moderate consumption (in the showers) than to have to go refill
To use the toilet, specific instructions have to be followed, and paper or any other thing must not be flushed, to avoid clogs.
As for the electric consumption; don’t leave any lights on, and charge phones during the day.
Try to avoid going on board with shoes from the street, therefore highly recommended to use a light shoe with white soles to avoid bashing your feet onto anything.
Eliminate sand from your feet and towels before going in after coming back from the beach.
Never enter while being wet, to avoid slips and accidents.
Use cremes (such as sunscreen) on top of a towel to avoid the deck from becoming slippery.
How do we organize meals?
For the food on board the sailboat, we will order catering for lunch and dinner for 4 days, and the rest we will complement with some food on Earth, (restaurants not included in the common fund) and a purchase that we make at the supermarket and they bring us to the boat. If you need anything special (e.g. gluten-free foods, lactose-free milk, etc.), please let us know.
