A briefing will be given immediately after boarding, where a common fund will be set up.
By paying 50 euros to the skipper or to a volunteer of the elected representative group.
Immediately afterwards, part or all of the group will go and buy the agreed list to ship it by the evening. So we could leave early on Sunday morning.

– Will a WhatsApp group be created?

Of course,
about a week before, a WhatsApp group will be created.
This group will serve to introduce the participants, to start creating a galley list which will then be « closed » upon boarding.
Upon his return from the previous tour, the skipper will communicate which (sealed) products are already on board, possibly left by previous groups.

– Snorkelling and fishing equipment?

– How is the common fund managed?

The common fund is managed by the skipper or by a group representative elected during the briefing.
The common fund requires an initial payment of 50 euros per person.
If the fund is not enough it will have to be reconstituted with a new payment.
All payments must be accompanied by a receipt, receipt or invoice.
At the end of the week the remaining cash will be divided equally among all participants.

There are 220V sockets in each cabin.
The 220V sockets can be used when the boat is in port with the main socket connected to the shore column.
During navigation or during stops at anchor, it will be possible to recharge using a common inverter present in the dinette (the common lounge of the boat).

– What happens in case of damage?

If a guest accidentally breaks something, we will try to repair it first, so as to avoid additional costs.
If the damage needs to be resolved with a replacement, the organization will provide an official estimate of the broken piece, so as to justify the refund amount that must be paid to the skipper.
