Problem solutions

We want to pull together with you! And that doesn’t just apply on board our sailing ships when hoisting and hauling in the sails.

If there is a problem during your sailing trip, please do not be afraid to talk to the crew about it. This is the only way the crew of the ship can react directly and work on solving the problem.

These can be technical problems (e.g. a non-functioning drain) or personal issues. We want you to have a good and enjoyable time on board and are happy to work with you if there are any discrepancies or defects.
