I finally “overpacked” as evidenced by the bruises left on my arm from my bag straps! So, I’m learning to pare down to actual essentials. I finally got a beanbag and slept on the upper deck, and it’s the best sleep I’ve gotten on the boat! My camp pillow and sleeping bag did the job, and my pjs of leggings and and a long-sleeved t-shirt sufficed. When I got up, I changed into my UPF shirt and should have changed into my UPF pants. In addition, the things that were necessary:
- Sunscreen
- Visor
- Trucker hat
- Floppy sun hat
- Flip flops
- Buff
- puffy layer
- Costa Del Mar sunglasses (though curious about Rheos)
- Sunglasses strap (though I might want a different one…)
