  • Binoculars for bird and wildlife watching
  • A camera for capturing those special moments
  • Phone chargers (12v or 240v)
  • A torch for walking back to your cruiser after dark
  • Clothes to suit all weather conditions
  • Sun protection- you can burn easily by the water
  • Toiletries (preferably phosphate free)
  • CDs, DVD’s, board games, games for the onboard games console, please see individual boat page for console type.
  • Food, snacks and drinks (Please note under-counter fridges with ice box compartment, so much smaller than a domestic fridge)
  • Remember cooking essentials like oil, butter, salt and pepper etc.
  • Some extra loo roll (non-quilted)

We recommend that you pack your luggage in soft bags which fold away rather than suitcases which are difficult to store on board.

Please note that there is a large independent supermarket a short walk from our boat yard to purchase all of your provisions before you set sail.
