What does a girl need for the ARC!?

[StellaGirl]

OK - I am off on the ARC in November. Never done it before. I obviously only want to take one bag - back pack type thing. But what should I be putting in this bag!! Any tips?

Plenty of books ... and then some more books

If all goes well then it's either 20 days of downwind boredom south and the west via the current line or 20 days of boredom reaching via the rhum line.

You'll also need a recipe book on how to cook the miniscule flying fish that land on the deck.

When you get to Rodney Bay you won't want to get off the boat ... but getting into Rodney Bay is the only real challenge.

Roberto girls use razors. They just start at the feet.

Darlings obviously the women you hang around with are semi-Neanderthal and require industrial style hair removal apparatus that you blokes use, these 34 inches of pleasure are eternally and naturally racing hull smooth. As for the scrubbing brush... I only bathe in Asses milk applied lightly to the shoulders by my boat boy.

Re: Good question !

Have already filled the position of boat boy - however he may get tired satisfying my demands and therefore perhaps another is required....it could be a long trip and has already been mentioned boredom may strike and I will need to keep myself amused...

Re: Ah but

does that measurement include all the way around your back too? That always seems a bit of a cheaty of measuring to me.

4)Matey Bubble Bath
5)Cambridge Press "Essential Latin Grammer"
6)A Tin of Clown Reppellant
7)Refillable Rubber squid
8)Picture Hooks
9)A chair and whip (in case of lions)
10)Sunscreen

Hope this helps.

1. earplugs for rodney bay (loud music from marina bar till 6am and ALL the karaoke singers are truly bad)
2. lots of euros for the 'parties' in las palmas
3. lots of books
4. fishing line
5. sunscreen, shades & hat
6. a swim towel (speedo or similar)
7. goggles & snorkel

decide on the clothing you plan to take, then dump 2/3 of it.
