Items to bring aboard

Wear a swimsuit if you wish to swim, or clothing you don't mind getting wet from ocean spray. We know some things in life sound a little better with the clink of a glass, so our guests are allowed to bring their own alcohol. If we're informed ahead of time, our crew will have ice waiting for you. If you are prone to seasickness, we recommend taking Bonine antiemetic before your charter.
