Life on board:

The daily routines goes like this: Trainees, will be assigned to one of three watch teams who work for 4 hours and then have 8 hours off, both day and night. Trainees will assign to the following watches:

4-8

8-12

12-4

When you join in on a team, it makes the voyage more interesting and you get to know your fellow trainees better.

The watch posts are as follows:

Look-out:

Posted on the foredeck or, in heavy weather, on the poop-deck. The look-out reports all objects sighted: boats, fishing equipment, wreck-goods and other floating goods.

Helmsman:

Posted at the wheel on the poop-deck. Steers the ship under supervision of the ship´s crew.

Fire- and safety watch:

The fire-watch patrols the entire ship every 30 minutes, starting on deck and following the designated patrol route.

 Galley duty:

One or two trainees from each watch can be posted in the galley or pantry, for one day, to assist the cooks during meals.

 During your free time, you are welcome to relax with a good book, take photos or talk with your fellow trainees over a good cup of coffee. You are also welcome to help with the current shift, if you wish. You will quickly get into the rhythm on board and take part in the work together with our permanent crew. Sailing experience is not necessary, we give you all the training necessary, but you must be in so good physical shape that you can contribute to your watch team.

Food

We serve tasty and nutritional meals aboard. On Sea Norway we serve local, traditional food. You can buy a special diet when you do the booking. Remember to specify your diet. You must report any food allergies when ordering your voyage. Please inform us before the voyage begins.

While at sea, meals are served at the following times:

0730: Breakfast

1200: Lunch

1730: Dinner

Further food in the late evening is available as required for the night shifts.

While at sea you will sleep either on a bunk, or in a hammock. There are separate bathrooms for women and men. This summer, because of covid-19 we built “walls” between the bunk beds and made curtains between the hammocks and beds. We will not take these away it gives the trainees more privacy.

Las Palmas

Christian Radich will stay at the cruise terminal St. Catalina. The airport is located approx. 19 km’s south of Las Palmas. There are two means of transport:

A direct bus  leaves from the departure hall (above the arrival hall) twice per hour. Or you can take a taxi to the Cruise terminal (Muelle Sta. Catalina)

Everyone with normal good health can sail with Christian Radich. An important part of the experience to all trainees is to be able to sail as much as possible. We expect that most of you enter the rig as well, but if you don’t want to join this, please inform your watch leader. If you have any health limitations or disabilities, this must be further evaluated. On sea, health limitations can be extended, and especially if bad weather occurs. We expect that every trainee can take care of her- or himself, it is not possible for our crew to pay extra attention to each individual trainee.  If you answer positive on one or more of these questions, you must contact us for an evaluation.

If you are over 67 years, you must send us the health declaration and one  signed by your doctor.
