What to Pack
Do not bring hard luggage because we have nowhere to store hard luggage.
Please pack your items in a canvas bag or duffel bag. Pack light! This is a
very casual ship and 90% of the time you will be in your bathing suit or
shorts and T-shirts enjoying the out islands of the Bahamas. You may want to
bring one set of “going out” clothes for a night out in town. But again, the
island is very casual.

FOOD!
All meals will be provided for you, except one dinner meal out which you
are on your own. We pride ourselves in catching our own fresh seafood of
grouper, hogfish, snapper, lobster and conch as much as possible. We do have
a nice grill on deck for some fun barbequing. Linda continues to be praised
for her delicious cooking, so she looks forward to spoiling you a bit in the
food department! We also welcome you to share your culinary talents.
Beverages
Beverages such as coffee, iced tea, orange juice, lemonade and Gatorade
will be provided for you. We do not provide sodas and alcohol. In the
Bahamas, liquor such as Rum, Whiskeys, Vodka, Gin, Tequila, and Liquors are
very inexpensive so you can buy these items yourself when you arrive. Beer
and wine is also available. You will have time to shop for your beverages
before we leave the dock. Arriving in Marsh
Harbour Upon your arrival in Marsh Harbour get a taxi at the airport.
Call "Captain Thomas" on the taxi's VHF radio on Channel 74.
We will instruct the taxi where to meet us. For some reason if you do not
reach us on the radio, have the taxi take you to the Conch Marina.
Emergency Contact Information IF there is an emergency and you need to
contact someone on our ship during their charter this is what you need to
do.
Email: cruisers@oii.net. Put the name
of the ship and the VHF channel “Ciganka” VHF Channel 74 in the
subject and then type out the message you need to get to them. As soon as
the email is sent we will be called on the VHF radio which we monitor at all
times. This is the quickest way to get a hold of us. This is for an
emergency only.
