Pharmacy – Health & Wellbeing Concern
There is the necessary first aid kit aboard, which must be there by law. However, if you have taken your family and children with you to the boat, you might want to have "home" remedies with you. This encompasses an extra bandage, adhesive bandages, an antiseptic, painkillers, fever reducing pills, and anti nausea pills.
Pay special attention to having stocked seasickness pills, and medicine in case of wasp stings and snakebites. When you anchor in a bay or a port and go running around the island you should be aware that there are various reptiles on the island. Wasps are common guests, especially when they are lured to your boat by your fruit remains on the deck or the cockpit. Vitamin pills are also a welcome aid to have aboard. Do not overstock yourself with everything in the amount of medicine and medical accessories you bring with you.
Clothes & Footware
Even in hot summer months we should anticipate being caught by storms or winds when we are at sea. Having the right clothes with you is therefore very important-wind breaker jackets, suitable for vessels.
Above all, choose your footwear carefully, especially for rainy conditions or stormy weather, so that you will not slip, because the deck is soaking wet at the time, and of course also very dangerous. Furthermore, wear good quality footwear also when you fasten and unfasten the vessel, because fast movements across the vessel can lead to injuries.
We recommend the following brands: TBS HN, SEBAGIO, MUSTO, HENRY LOYD.
