What is life on the ship like and what will be your responsibilities?
We live, sleep and spend most of our time on a ship, sometimes on the high seas (so also out of reach)! There are no passengers and guests on the Sailboat, they are all crew and perform all work related to the operation of the ship and the cruise. The entire crew is divided into four groups – the so-called watches. The watch is also the name of the activities that are to be performed on the ship. Each group in turn performs all watches, i.e. navigational and economic:
- navigation – ship control, observation of the basin, marking the position of the ship on the map, changing the sail settings;
- economic (galley) – assistance to the cook in preparing meals, serving to the table, washing dishes, cleaning the interior of the ship, toilets and bathrooms;
IMPORTANT:
- No sailing experience is required for the cruise;
- You will always be under the care of the captain and experienced officers who will distribute tasks between you, explain everything and show you;
- However, absolute adherence to safety rules and willingness to cooperate is required.
- A member of the Crew is also a female Pearl (adoptive, hybrid, medium-sized, very friendly)
- The service on the ship takes place 24 hours a day !!!
- There will be an (online) meeting for the crew before the cruise
