A small hanging closet (100x50x50 cm) is at the disposal of each trainee.
It is recommended to use a soft travelling bag ( 40x40x65 cm) as suitcases are too bulky to be stored on board. Packing a small amount of clothes is also advisable.
Include a complete set of spare clothes and some warm clothing- even in summer, night watches can be quite chilly! Washing and drying your linen is not possible on board.
Each bunk is equipped with a fleece blanket.
