Being properly dressed makes a huge difference to comfort and safety at sea. Conditions can change quickly, so we recommend wearing several lightweight layers that you can add or remove as needed. The following is a useful guide
for most weather conditions:
• Waterproof footwear
• Comfortable trousers
• Base layer
• Micro‑fleece
• Thermal fleece
• Waterproof trousers
• Waterproof jacket
• Beanie‑style hat
• Sun hat or cap
• Sunglasses
Staying warm and dry is important for comfort and helps reduce the likelihood of seasickness, especially when we are further offshore.
During the summer, lighter clothing such as shorts, T‑shirts and sandals is fine, but please take care with exposed toes when moving around the deck. High‑factor sun protection, a hat and sunglasses are strongly recommended due to the glare from the sea. Even on warm days, it’s sensible to bring an extra layer to keep the wind out, particularly if your charter extends into the evening.
