We are offering a hand santising station upon boarding. Once passengers have boarded the vessel, there will be a safety briefing which will include protocols on maintaining safe distances whilst on board. In regards to keeping safe distances, all passengers are expected to spread out across our 5 viewing platforms. Throughout the tour, if people are not maintaining safe distances we will give them a friendly reminder. Passengers will also be informed of complimentary hand sanitising stations that are available at 4 different locations on the vessel. Cleaning procedures have been amped up, the vessel will be cleaned\/sanitized before, during and after each tour, including surfaces, hand railings, toilets, chairs, all things that passengers may come in contact with.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=&#8221;1_2,1_2&#8243; module_class=&#8221;internal__row&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.8&#8243; max_width=&#8221;1920px&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;1_2&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.8&#8243; animation_style=&#8221;bounce&#8221; animation_direction=&#8221;left&#8221; animation_delay=&#8221;200ms&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.0.9&#8243;]<\/p>\n<h3>3 &#8211; Staff Training &amp; Education<\/h3>\n<p>The Covid-19 Hygiene Course is mandatory for all staff &#8211; this is not just for the protection of passengers but for the safety of our crew.
