On the orlop deck, you will sleep either in a bunk bed or a hammock. The duty shifts will be divided as following: 8-12, 12-4 and 4-8, two shifts each day. An important part of the experience for all trainees, is that the ship sails as much as possible. Everyone must contribute on board and be active on their duties. Regular tasks during duty is lookout, be at the helm and fire watches. Trainees must be available on deck during the duty. We expect that as many as possible enter the rig also, but if you don’t feel like doing that, please let the crew know. Some duties are hectic, others can be very calm. Then our crew will teach seamanship, knots and hitches, etc. Please remember to let us know if you are traveling together with someone with a different booking number than yourself, so that you can get on the same duty shift. The voyage crew coordinator will allocate the shift list and try to accommodate special wishes, but we can’t guarantee it.
