» I am a meticulous person.

So are we… That is why you’ll see that everything is kept clean and tidy throughout your journey. (We’d better do that because those vessels literally cost fortunes.) The yacht is thoroughly cleaned and inspected before you embark. The bedsheet are changed usually twice a week and the toilets are cleaned everyday. To prevent the toilets from getting blocked, materials like paper and cotton should be thrown in the dustbin nearby.

» How comfortable are the cabins?

You’ll see on the pages of each yacht that a majority of them are air conditioned. The beds are large enough to sleep confortably. Most beds are french beds ie. two people in one bed (about 2×1.4 m). Some cabins on some vessels have twin beds -two separate beds, each just less than a meter wide. The cabins are spacious with sufficient wardrobes, bedside tables and adjacent private shower and toilet. In some delux yachts you have armchairs, secretary tables, you even have your own television in your cabin. Unfortunately despite all this care for comfort and luxury, few people seem to want to go down to their beds while they can sleep on deck, undearmchairs, secretary tables, you even have your own television in your cabin. Unfortunately despite all this care for comfort and luxury, few people seem to want to go down to their beds while they can sleep on deck, under the glittering stars. As for the air-conditioners; don’t count on them too much. Their use is restricted because they are turned off at night for safety reasons and also, their use is not allowed when moored in harbours due to enviromental regulations.

» How about health care?

The yachts are fully equipped with first aid kits and efficient medication against nausea (but because you psychologically get adapted to the environement, it is not much likely that you will get sea sick.) For instances when more serious medical care is needed, our coast staff is always alert for prompt interference and immediate hospitalisation if neccessary.
