postheadericon Packing List for a Weekend Sail

| Print | |  Email

When coming aboard for a work/sail weekend, you should pack the following things in your sea bag.  Please note that boats do not have much space, and you must pack very light.

  1. Foul weather gear:
    1. Rain jacket.
    2. Rain pants
  2. Layered clothing -- it can range from very hot to very cold when you are on the water.
  3. Sleeping bag -- you may also wish to bring a pillow.
  4. Eating gear
    1. Something with which to eat (e.g., a Lexan spoon or spork)
    2. Something out of which to eat, which can hold soup (e.g., a plastic bowl)
    3. Something out of which to drink (e.g., a wide-mouth Nalgene bottle)
  5. Your Sea Scout manual (VERY important!)

Please check with your boat Captain or the Skipper if you are not sure.
