PREPARING Preparing for your holiday What’s on board? Everything you need for a comfortable and safe holiday is on board. Cabins have all bed linen (pillows, duvets and sheets) provided for the number of people on board, and cabins will be made up in advance as singles or doubles (where feasible) according to your preferences. Small bathroom towels for each person are also provided. The kitchen galley is fully equipped with a range of utensils, cutlery, crockery and equipment to suit the number of people on board. Tea towels are also provided. The kitchen galley has a gas oven and hob and depending on the model, either one or two fridges and a microwave oven. Some of our boats are fitted with safes. Use them when going ashore and make sure you never leave valuables in sight of people passing by. All safety equipment is on board such as a life-ring, life-jackets for each person (children’s life jackets are available) and a basic first aid kit, as well as a boat hook, fenders and a fire extinguisher. Deck equipment is provided so you can keep the outside of the boat clean and tidy while you cruise – you’ll find a bucket and a mop as well as a mallet and mooring pegs and ropes. Depending on the model of your boat, an outdoor table and chairs for use on the sundeck will also be on board. Parasols are provided on your boat for a refundable deposit. 4 W D w c a r d a L p B a o b F u g
