What to bring
Qualifications; don’t forget your RYA certificates, along with a photocopy. If you have the old type it would be a good idea to up date to the one that has your photograph included.
Bed linen and shower towels will be provided,
Spending money Approx 180/200 euro is the average per week.
Luggage - holdalls and rucksacks only, as they will need to be able to be packed flat for storage. No suit cases.
Shoes - comfortable footwear that can withstand salt water, Trekking type sandals are ideal, (available from outdoor shops), these can be washed prior to going back on board or you must have sailing shoes for sole use on board and shoes for use ashore.
Clothes - bring about 2/3rds of what you think. Shorts and T shirts are ideal, with a “cover up”, to protect you from the sun. June through to September will be very hot. Mostly, in the evenings you will be going ashore by dinghy, hence a good chance of getting your bottom wet, so nothing too smart! Also bring at least 2 swimming costumes, a beach towel and a hat preferably with the means to attach to your person.
Suntan lotion - bring a factor suitable for your skin type and adequate for sailing in the Mediterranean climate.
Bare Boat Charters Only: You will need to bring £750 for Spectre I or £1400 for Spectre II and Aeolus security deposit, or you can transfer on internet banking before you travel, then have the money transferred back at the end of your holiday when you return the yacht with no damage or losses.
