What kind of luggage should I bring?
While there is ample room for you and your belongings on the boat, large/hard-sided luggage will take up excess space in your cabin. We highly recommend bringing a collapsible bag or bags that can be stowed out of your way and out of the way of other guests.

On the first and final days of the Trip, Rhythm & Sails will provide ground transportation. Staff will meet you at the airport and bring you to the Marina which is about 20 minutes away. If you're arriving early or departing late, you'll be responsible for your own ground transportation.
Do I need travel insurance?
It’s highly recommended that you purchase travel insurance to cover things outside of our control, such as: loss or damage to baggage and personal belongings, cancellation of the flights/trips/excursions, lost luggage, death in a family, visa problems, injuries, pregnancy, pandemics, epidemics, trip cancelation due to weather, hurricanes, volcanos, etc. Visit Redpoint Travel Protection or another provider to research options.
What happens if there is a hurricane?
Rhythm & Sails trips are intentionally planned outside of hurricane season. In the months, weeks and days leading up to each trip, however, we continually monitor the weather to ensure the safety and comfort of our guests. If our yacht supplier shuts their base down due to weather or if we deem it unsafe to sail then we will be forced to cancel or postpone the trip. In the extreme case that the trip is canceled, we are unable to refund you as most of our expenditures are sunk costs. In this case, a third party travel insurance plan, such as one purchased from Redpoint Travel Protection, will enable you to recoup the cost of your trip.
Are there any health requirements for coming on the trip?
Guests are not required to perform strenuous physical activity but being a guest on a sailing catamaran is physical by nature. We do accommodate guests with disabilities to the best of our ability. If you have any pre-existing conditions, special needs, specific requests or questions about the this, please contact us prior to booking at info@rhythmandsails.com.
Will you be capturing photo or video content?
Yes, we will be have photographers and cinematographers on most of our trips and will share professional photographs with you in the weeks following. This content will also be used for promotion through Rhythm & Sails and its partners.
What if I get sea sick?
Sea sickness is not uncommon but can be managed. If you think you might be prone to sea sickness, we recommend bringing remedies such as motions sickness patches, dramamine, pressure point bracelets or prescription remedies that are available through your doctor.
