FAQ's

  • What Should I Bring?

    CONSIDER TO BRING

    • Sailors should dress for safety, comfort, and weather. In spring and fall, dress in layers and bring a jacket or sweatshirt; it can be cooler at sea than on land.
    • In summer, bring a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen. 
    • For safety and comfort, soft-soled shoes like boat shoes or sneakers are the preferred footwear aboard the Francesca. You will be asked to go barefoot for safety reasons if you wear hard-soled shoes or high heels on board.

    WHAT NOT TO BRING

    • Per Federal regulation no marijuana or marijuana-containing products no illicit drugs
