11. HOUSE RULES ONBOARD
As part of the crew onboard, we encourage keeping a tidy and clean environment. This will help ensure a healthy and happy environment.
11.1 Keep the space shipshape, above and below deck. Every single thing aboard a vessel has its place and has to be put exactly in the same place all the time. That way all sorts of injuries, such as twisted angles, browses or scratches are put to a minimum. All the dishes, plates and cutlery have to be stored in their compartments before taking off while all the cupboards, drawers and hatches have to be carefully closed. All the objects which might be rolled over or broken should be secured as well as the swimming toys (fins, goggles, towels and swimsuits) which have to be stored in the trunks instead of lying in the cockpit or on the transom.
11.2 The captain is law. There can be only one captain on board. Captain’s orders must be obeyed without question or discussion because he has full responsibility for goods and lives aboard.
11.3 Safety first- Every crew member has to be aware of the place of their lifejackets and all the fire extinguishers. In the case of emergency, everybody should obey the instructions by the captain.
11.4 A hostess is onboard to cook breakfast and lunch, wash up dishes and maintain the common spaces of the ship. Bedrooms are the responsibility of the guest.
12. Data protection
Evelyn Stavrinidis does not store customers’ personal data.
13. Weather Conditions
Should the weather not permit departure, as this is subject to the skipper’s judgment, no refunds are subjected to any delays or plan changes. Should the weather deem the crew and guests to be inside the vessel all practices will be amended and taken under shelter and/or inside the vessel.
14. There is no smoking on board this vessel. As this week is centred around mindful leisure. To benefit as such, we encourage none to minimal alcohol intake. We will be “tasting” local barrelled wine and/or local beer with dinner. “Tasting” refers to a half a glass per person.
