Quick Cruising Poll

Hey everyone, I've always wondered how people see cruising. So let me do a quick poll; will be fun!
When you go on a sailing cruise what is the one item you bring that you can’t do without?

When you go on a sailing cruise what is the one thing you can’t bring but miss the most?

Which activity you’d like to do but is unavailable on your boat?

Allow me to put a spark back in the conversation:
1) Rain coat irrespective of the weather
2) My telescope
3) Resistance training

Re: Quick Cruising Poll

Ya UHT, sorry. The trick is to get it real cold before using...I keep my fridge 36 degrees so its very refreshing in a bowl of cereal any time of day.


It's great for baking & crepes as well.



I keep a lb of powdered milk as well but that's part of emergency rations along with 100 cans of tuna...neither taste good lol.

Re: Quick Cruising Poll

Lost Horizons how come you’re missing snorkeling? I’d think that sailing goes hand in hand with other water based activities...
