This packing list is a suggestion!

What you really need will vary according to your personal requirements, sea area, time of year, etc.

When packing, remember that we are more exposed to the weather on the water – i.e. it is always colder, hotter and wetter than on land 😉

Space on board is limited, so hard-shell suitcases are not suitable as they cannot be stowed away.

If you are unsure, please ask again.
