    Report on-board Shy-Torque III

    20.06.20

    Hi everyone. Such a long time since we've been on here!!

    The Whitby Charter Skippers had a meeting this morning and had a chat about our return to sea. Insurance companies have been contacted and we have been told that we are ok to go providing "ALL" government guidance is adhered to.

    It was agreed that next Saturday was going to be the start day back to sea. This is also the first day of the Summer angling competition (which has been chopped and adjusted here and there).

    The current government guidelines are such that we can only sail with a maximum of 6 people (this number includes the skipper). We will be taking bookings for groups of up to 5 anglers at the moment. Individuals are always very welcome too. If the guidelines on social distancing change and the group gathering numbers change too, we should be able to sail with more. Keep an eye on the sites for any updated news!

    Our calendar is, as always, fully up to date so do take a look and if you fancy a trip with us please give us a ring, text or email for any information.

    If you are already booked on or want to sail with us, we ask that (if possible) you can bring PPE with you. Hand sanitiser, masks (or Snoods like I wear on the motorbike will do!) We will be carrying some PPE as well, in case you don't have any. We will ask that regular hand washing takes place during the day. The boat will be well and truly cleaned at the end of each day with industrial bleach ready for the next sailing.

    The boat will be clearly marked out for distancing and we will ask that you adhere to the rules asked by the government. Our safety as always is paramount!

    The anglers cabin won't be available due to the current situation so please bring some good gear with you incase it gets a little splashy out there!

    I know that this sounds like a massive change, but if we all stick to everything that we are told then hopefully in the not too distant future we will be able to return to some sort of normality and start operating like before.

    Obviously, if you start suffering with any symptoms of Covid-19 we would appreciate your honesty and that you did not sail with us until you are safe to do so. We will happily transfer your booking to another date.

    Take good care of yourselves and hope to speak soon.

    Cheers
    Rich
