Getting Ready

For the first time I've started to think about my adventure. What prompted me was receiving this kit list by email. 8 days and counting before I fly out! Northern Child Kit List ARC 2010

The yacht provides towels, oilskins, life jackets and harnesses.

Please bring the following:-

• T-shirts and shorts (that you will be able to wash on board during the crossing)
• 1  pair of quick dry trousers
• 1 sailing jacket or fleece
• Swimming trunks

Otherwise you should take with you:_

• Passport
• Personal medicines
• Small head torch preferably able to do red as well
• Personal toiletries, including sun cream
• Deck shoes or white-sole trainers (no black soled shoes)
• Sailing gloves
• Cap or Hat
• Soft kit bag (no wheels, studs or hard cases will be allowed aboard)
• Personal logbook, if you have one
• Ipod or MP3

Thats it! Can't wait. They are giving a prize for the crew member that turns up with the least kit!
