We are looking forward to welcoming you on board Melodrama. Please pack soft travel bags only, no wheely bags!
Here is a list of things we would like you to bring with you, which will make our time more enjoyable.
To avoid a coastal search for a launderette, and hours/days inside, it would be really helpful if you can bring your own: – Fitted bottom sheet – a double fits the cabin well – Top sheet (we have duvets and pillows and pillow cases) – Bath towels A large bag to carry your towels etc to morning marina facilities Your own medication Your preferred sea sickness cures Sailing gloves if you have them (we will have spares) Non-slip non-marking shoes – trainers are fine A waterproof sailing jacket or outdoor walking jacket Clothes for a Northern Irish summer – both warm clothes and shorts and T-shirts A warm fleece Swimwear Sunglasses A sun hat Sun cream Your choice of music on your mobile phone – can be streamed over Bluetooth to our portable speaker Warning – we may be in Sweden, but no Abba allowed! Contributions to our cupboard stores are always gratefully received!
Here are some of the things we will have on board that you will not need to bring:
Duvets, duvet covers, pillows and pillow cases Life jackets Harness lines A hairdryer Spare thin wet weather waterproof trousers First aid kit USB charging outlets
For your comfort and convenience we have on board:
– cabin heating – a USB charging port built into the light fitting in each cabin, for use when we are plugged into shore power or under engine. – hot and cold running water, providing the tanks have been filled up! – a small holding tank for WC waste – a fridge with freeze box (for ice!) – a fender step and side gates in the guardrails – all the port lights (windows) have fly screens. See you soon!
