Statsraad Lehmkuhl

Make sure to bring  towels, a pillow and pillowcase (unless you can sleep without!), a sleeping bag and a refillable water bottle.

Towels and bottles with the ship’s logo can be bought in the little souvenir shop on board.

Since you’ll be sharing the sleeping space with many people, a sleep mask and earplugs are recommended, unless you’re a very heavy sleeper! The hammocks are close together, so expect some noise from your shipmates.

All meals are included – breakfast, lunch and dinner – as well as a simple meal for the night watch and a snack for afternoon “three o’clock coffee.”

The ship can cater for general diets (meat-based), vegetarian, gluten-free, and lactose-free diets. Let us know about your dietary requirements in the health form!

The ship may also accommodate some mild food allergies; however, due to shared food preparation areas, it is not possible to guarantee complete separation, and therefore severe allergies cannot be catered for.

A vegan diet cannot be accommodated on board the Statsraad Lehmkuhl.

As voyage crew, you will serve two fixed four-hour watches per day:

• Red watch: 12:00–16:00 / 00:00–04:00
• White watch: 04:00–08:00 / 16:00–20:00
• Blue watch: 08:00–12:00 / 20:00–00:00

– Full rig access: Either 1 standard pull-up or 5 Bravo pull-ups, followed by a 10-second dead hang. See video of the Bravo pull-up (YouTube).
– Limited access: Hanging freely by the arms for 10 seconds allows access to the lower shrouds, lower yards (up to the first platform, but not above it), and the bowsprit.

If you do not meet the requirement of dead hang for 10 seconds, you are unfortunately not permitted to enter the rig of Statsraad Lehmkuhl, including the bowsprit.

 There is a total ban on alcohol and other intoxicants on board – including when the ship is docked – except during specific permitted events. Violation of this policy will result in immediate dismissal from the ship.
