Is it necessary to come equipped with technical gear to sail?
Temperature at sea is always lower than onshore. It is therefore necessary to wear technical clothing. We advise you to always bring spare clothes to be able to change as well as a waterproof jacket and trousers. Lifejacket is compulsory.
