It will only be 3 hours so I won’t need a lot of stuff, right?
Well, you won’t need any coconuts.
Personally, I’d pack a Ginger or Mary Ann…
What’s the purpose of the tour? Whale-watching? Water-skiing? Scuba-diving?
Where is it? Ambient conditions?
I’d start w/ sunscreen and sunglasses but maybe you’re touring southern NZ this time of year so those may not be so important.
Oh… i think I’m getting whoosed. I’d carry a satellite phone.
Hull repair kit.
ETA: Those poor people.
A Gilligan gun.
But what if you had to choose only one?
IF this is a serious question, pack a warmer jacket than you think you need. Snacks, water are good. A kite and bubbles are fun.
A large trunk full of money.
Block Island? Warm clothing.
Tina Louise (Ginger) is 83 & Dawn Wells (Mary Ann) is 78; personally, I’d pack someone a bit younger.
Really all you need is a wilderness survival scout master who can make anything from raw materials; a do-it-yourself homemaker who can cook, sew and garden; some strong guy to do all the heavy work; and a beautiful whorish wannabe actress-model who’s impressed with your wealth and connections. Everything else is superfluous.
Oh, but if anyone else in your party is a stupid klutz who keeps breaking things, push him off a cliff at the first opportunity.
Bring many trunks full of cleanly pressed clothes. Sometimes these tours run longer than expected.
One that’s solar powered.
Don’t worry about that; if you need to fix the boat, you can just use homemade maple syrup.
Once you are in the movies, you are ageless.
Just don’t let the first mate hold it…
Yeah, satellite phone, water purifier, and the book 1,001 Things to do With a Coconut.
Sunscreen.
The worst sunburn I ever got was on a river boat cruise in New Orleans. It went through several locks. I stayed on deck to watch and enjoy the scenery.
My arms, face and neck got cooked.
I mistakenly thought the sun’s reflection from the water wouldn’t reach me on a large, multi deck boat.
Sunscreen helps on the island too.
A transistor radio can often be a real plot starter on these trips. Make it a hand crank powered one in case no knowledgeable professors happen to be on the trip.
