A Day's
Plan The
general plan for your day's stay on board is that there
is no plan!
When you come onboard, everybody will sit around the
chart and the skipper will inform you about the area
and all the possible places to visit. After discussing
everybody's preferences a general itinerary will be drawn.
However our experience has shown that if wind is very
light, ideally we motor to a beach or two and depending
on wind conditions we sail back to our home port of Xemxija.
But as we go along this may alter slightly, as you
will get new ideas along the way!
Normally, sometime around 10.00 am, and after a short
discussion over the chart about where would be nice to go for
a swim or snorkel, we set sail.
Depending on sea conditions you will have a
comfortable sail to a bay of your choice either towards the
North West i.e. Mellieha, Comino or Gozo
or towards the East i.e. Bahar ic-Caghaq or St.
Julian's.
After we drop anchor, you can stay onboard, go for a
bit of swimming and snorkeling, or head for the
shore.
It
is a heaven for kids as well, as they normally play for hours
in the water, explore the sea life, or run around on the
beach. This boat under motor is fast enough for water skiing;
this is an other exciting option which is charged separately.
Around
1 o'clock in the afternoon, lunch is served in the cockpit. A
typical Maltese platter which tuna, olives, gbejna
(Maltese goat's cheese) bigilla (dip made from
beans) salami, ham, kapunata (dip made from mixed
vegetables) together with Maltese bread and galletti (Maltese
water biscuits) and of course lunch is accompanied
with wine or beer, water, soft drinks and fresh
fruit as a desert* Tea and Coffee is also
available.
In
late afternoon it's a good time to weigh anchor, hoist the
sails and head for our home port of Xemxija
We'll be there just before sunset around 6 or
7 o'clock which will give you plenty of time to disembark
"Marzipan".
* Lunch and beverage contents are subject to change
without prior notice. Special menus could be arranged on
special request.
