What shall I bring?
Maximum luggage allowance for any sailing event: 1 average size bag. No suitcases, please!
- Personal medicine. Please, don’t forget any medicine that you might be taking or might need. If you have any health issues, for example, a bad back, please let your skipper know in advance.
- Sea sickness pills, for example Stugeron. You can buy them in a pharmacy, but do consult your GP first.
- Sleeping bag. Any outdoor shop will sell them.
- Warm clothes and a good supply of dry clothes. It can get quite chilly in the evening, so do pick up a sweater and a hat
- Socks. 2 pairs per day at sea, you can never have too many pairs of socks!
- Boat shoes. This type of shoe is very safe to wear on board, as they are non-slip. In general, any non marking (white sole) shoes will do, but if you find yourself going sailing for a second or third time, it is probably time you got some good boat shoes!
- Wet weather gear. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide you with wet weather gear. Anything waterproof will do, skiing stuff also works well!
- Towel, tooth brush, tooth paste, shampoo, etc. Don’t forget!
- Suntan lotion, sun glasses
- Cash in local currency. Cash dispencers are usually far away from the marinas
- Ear plugs. It is generally fairly noisy in the marina and people generally snore!
- Good mood. That’s generally the most important thing!
