New voyage, new group a new start

26 January 2020

The new guests came on board yesterday afternoon and everyone is settled in. We had dinner, a drink and had a good night’s rest. Then it is custom to give a safety briefing before we set sail. Just like on a plane.

To start we do an emergency drill. We switch on an alarm, all (guest)crew muster on the mid-deck and then everyone hears what needs to be done in an emergency situation like man overboard, abandon ship or in case of a fire. All the do’s and don’ts are explained. After the instructions it is time to depart and we hope that we don’t encounter any emergency situations.
