M.V. Flightless is a 27m ex Navy expedition vessel with international survey, extensive safety equipment, minimum of 3 crew, two tenders, fresh water-makers, ice maker, laundry facilities, ventilation & heating throughout, five bathrooms, second saloon in the wheelhouse, full walk around deck, heli-pad, easy access to the water and a huge heatable back deck which is also partially under cover.  

There are 5 rooms to choose from - 4 Double/twin cabins, each with a queen bed and a single bed above and a Quad cabin with 4 single bunk beds. All rooms have their own ensuite with shower and toilet and are equipped with USB charging.
We can cater for up to 12 clients and everything asides from alcohol is included... catering, bedding and towels, fishing rods and tackle, yoga mats, soda stream machine, an extensive library, dive cylinders, BCDs and weights, fins, masks, snorkels, catch bags, knives as well as 2 piece 7mm wetsuits, spearfishing floats and 20m float lines, kayaks, bean bags, paddle boards and of course a hot tub on the top deck.

So all there is to bring along is yourselves, a little luggage, a sense of adventure and of course any special treats you’d like to indulge in whilst onboard.

There is no schedule to follow or specific destination set as every adventure for us is as unique as the people onboard whilst we simply follow the rhythm of sun and tides.

Clothes for four seasons (regardless of time of year)

No need for the whole wardrobe as we do have a washing machine/dryer, but thermals and merino for layers are a great idea. As is a beanie.

Comfortable lounging gear

Slippers or thick socks to go with whatever you like to relax in as we have a no shoes inside policy.. it's home..

Beverages

You will need to supply your own alcohol. Wine & spirits are ok in bottles, but bring beer in cans so we can easily fly out the recycling. We have a Soda Stream and syrups (Coke, Lemonade, Tonic, Ginger Beer & Lemon Lime Bitters) onboard. There is an endless supply of JEDS plunger coffee and herbal or gumboot tea.

Don't hesitate to get in touch with us if you have any special requirements and questions or simply want to chat about your adventure or have a look at our FAQ page..

There will be Pure Salt crew to greet you at the departure point and make sure things run smoothly. When flying in or out there is a weight limit of 120kg per person INCLUDING luggage, (averaged across the group). With helicopter travel there is also a few other considerations.

ADVENTURE CHECKLIST

Fishing

We carry boat rods, spinners, game reels and associated tackle. However, if you have your personal favourites feel free to bring your own.

If you're looking at PACKING already your adventure can't be far away so we're looking forward to having you onboard with us soon...

PLEASE inform us of any medical conditions as well as dietary requirements no matter how big or small prior to joining us onboard as we can't adjust for anything once you're onboard.
