OYT South was unable to operate in 2020 and much of 2021 due to the pandemic. As we returned to work, we adopted a series of safety measures and protocols which were then adapted as time went on and eventually eased entirely. This page covers the last version of Covid guidance that we had in place and which could be quickly revived in the event of any future threat of widespread or serious infection.
Crew Covid Guidance (March 2023) – a short gude for everyone sailing on board Prolific, plus parents, carers, guardians and group organisers.
This document explains
- Precautions we will take to minimise the risk of bringing infection on board
- Procedures we will follow if we have any concerns about infection during a voyage
- Some changes to normal routines and practices during our voyages
It includes some things which you MUST agree to before sailing and which will be a condition of booking in 2023.
OYT South Covid Standard Operations Procedures (March 2023) – a much longer document intended for skippers and staff on board, covering OYT South’s detailed procedures before, during and after a voyage to minimise the risk of infection on board and to manage any issues arising on board.
