You will not need any special clothing for your course, however we request that you wear non-marking (or light coloured) soled shoes and make sure to bring warm clothing that you are able to get wet. On rainy or windy days it is a great idea to bring a wet weather jacket, towel and a change of clothes.

You will receive a certificate of participation which may be emailed to you after the course.

We will have a lunch break and you are welcome to bring your own lunch or purchase lunch from Crusoe's Cafe & Restaurant. For safety reasons we are unable to take anyone on board who has consumed alcohol before or during the course.
