Crew GuidE

We’ll coordinate your pick-up and drop-off with our tender at either a public dock or marina. Depending on weather conditions and how much luggage is coming aboard, there may be multiple trips.

Please note: Getting to and from the dock is your responsibility, so book any necessary transportation in advance.

The safety of the vessel and everyone aboard is our top priority, and a shared responsibility. We’ll walk through a full safety orientation once you're on board including: lifejackets/PFDs, moving around safely underway, man-overboard awareness, basic emergency procedures, and how we communicate as a crew. Please pay close attention and ask questions if anything’s unclear.

• Lifejackets/PFDs: No need to bring your own, we provide PFDs for each person aboard. If you prefer to bring your own, be aware that air travel with CO₂ canisters can be difficult.

Cabins & Heads

• The port hull has two guest cabins, a shared toilet (head), and a separate shower with a sink.

• The starboard hull houses the master cabin and a separate head and shower.

• The master cabin’s head/shower is available to all crew, so feel free to use it—just knock first and be mindful of shared use.

• Toilets are electric marine heads – push-button controls to fill and flush.

  *Absolutely nothing goes in the toilet except human waste and the provided marine toilet paper.*

Storage & Space

• Feel free to unpack into the drawers and cabinets in your cabin. Travel-size toiletries can be stored in the head cabinets.

• Life aboard means living in close quarters, so please help us keep the boat tidy by keeping your personal items in your cabin and leaving shared spaces uncluttered. We like to keep things ship-shape and ready to sail!

For our coastal trips, the pace is more relaxed and the days are more flexible. You’re welcome to get involved as much (or as little) as you'd like:

• Learn to sail the boat, assist with navigation, or dive into onboard systems and maintenance.

• Help plan the day: choose anchorages, chart courses, or go over weather routing.

• Or, simply sit back and enjoy the ride, lounge in the sun, read a book, watch dolphins, and soak in the surroundings.

• At the end of the sailing day, there’s time to swim, snorkel, paddleboard, or hike ashore.

• Life at anchor is peaceful and beautiful, enjoy sunset dinners, stargazing, and sleeping to the sounds of the sea.

Whether you're here to learn, to sail, or just to unwind, we’re here to make the experience your own.

This is your sailing adventure! Offshore passages offer the full experience of life underway from standing night watch to steering by starlight. You're invited to get hands-on: help hoist and trim sails, take the helm, learn to read the weather, and experience the rhythm of long-distance sailing.

• On offshore passages, the boat sails 24/7, so we operate on a watch schedule.

• Guests typically take 3 hour watches, often paired with a crew member or the captain, depending on your comfort level.

• No prior experience is necessary; we’ll show you the ropes!

We eat fresh, delicious meals made from scratch, using whole and local ingredients whenever possible.

• All meals, snacks, and beverages are included.

• Please let us know in advance if you have any allergies or dietary restrictions.

• The galley is open to everyone, feel free to use the stove/microwave or help yourself to food and drinks in the fridge and pantry.

• We kindly ask that you don’t eat or snack in your cabin, there’s plenty of communal space to enjoy meals.

We choose the itinerary based on the weather, but once we set sail, we adapt to what nature gives us - learning to be flexible is what this lifestyle is all about. Conditions can be wet, windy, or a bit bouncy, and yes, sometimes uncomfortable. It’s all part of the sailing adventure!

Although multihulls are generally more stable than monohulls, the motion of these lightweight performance catamarans at sea can feel quite different, especially if you’re new to it. Some guests adjust quickly, while others may need a day or two to find their sea legs.

If you’re prone to motion sickness, or even unsure, it’s best to prepare in advance:

• Bring seasickness medication and test it before boarding to understand any side effects (e.g. drowsiness or dry mouth)

• Take your first dose before departure

• Stay well hydrated during the trip

• If you begin to feel unwell, let the crew know, we’re here to help you stay as comfortable as possible.

What you pack should reflect the experience you're here for. On offshore passages, practicality and comfort are key, you'll want quick-drying, breathable layers suited for life underway. For coastal cruising, you might also want to bring an outfit or two for going ashore, having a drink, or enjoying an evening out.

• Please pack in soft luggage (duffel or backpack preferred) for ease of storage

• USB and USB-C charging ports are available throughout the boat

• Standard 110V (USA-style) and 220V (Euro-style) outlets are onboard for small electronics

Please see our Suggested Packing Lists for more details.

One of the best parts of offshore life is disconnecting, but we do stay connected when it counts.

• Starlink available for weather, emergency, email, and messaging

• Iridium GO satellite phone onboard (if applicable)

• Emergency contact info and access will be shared prior to departure
