Our First Aid Kit is well stocked and checked before every trip to ensure that all is there.

Health Considerations Please let us know if you have had surgery recently or if there is any other health consideration that is good for us to know about. All our staffs are trained in First Aid or are First Aid instructors but there are limits for what we can do and what we are allowed to do. We are onboard a boat and some of the time nearest help is far away.
