Pregnant women in their third trimester are not allowed aboard. There are no children’s programs, counsellors, or kid’s menus, and few youngsters sail aboard Royal Clipper. Those who don’t like heights can climb out in the bow netting while the ship is under sail. The ship’s most unusual and exhilarating exercise is supervised mast-climbing, which takes place several times a cruise unless the weather’s dreadful. Snorkeling gear must be used at the beach, as swimming off the platform is forbidden. On port days, a marina platform is sometimes lowered from the stern, and passengers frolic on and with a sunfish, a banana boat, water skis, windsurfs and kayaks. The third pool – the glass-bottom one above the dining room – is about four feet deep and just about big enough for a cooling dip. Of the three fresh water pools on the teak Sun Deck, two are only knee-deep, and the water’s unheated. Some passengers apparently believe that walking up and down stairs (there’s no passenger elevator) a couple of times a day is all the exercise they need. Use of the sauna is by appointment, and costs 3 Euros per day. Spa treatments include a 60-minute relaxation or Thai massage, for 62 Euros. The gym offers four treadmills, five exercycles (three types) and six weight machines. The spa, beauty salon and gym share the Captain Nemo Lounge’s underwater setting. Two 175-square foot cabins behind the library have no designated balcony space, but the cabin doors do open onto the deck, and there’s a whirlpool tub/shower in the bathroom, as well as a minibar and bathrobes.

The 14 Deluxe verandah suites, the first on a sailing craft, measure 255 square feet.

Cabins are equipped with 220-volt outlets, plus a 110-volt shaver outlet. A hair dryer, safe and standard toiletries are supplied in all categories. The 114 cabins in eight categories attractively juxtapose wood paneling, off-white walls, marine blue carpeting, bedspreads with nautical flags, and brass fixtures, all of which combine to say: nautical. A 12.5 percent tip is automatically added to bar bills. Tips may be placed in a box at the purser’s office or added to your onboard account. A tip of 8 Euros per passenger per day is suggested – 5 for the wait staff pool, 3 for your cabin steward. The ship speaks not of dollars, but of euros.
