Do’s:

• Respect the Captain and Crew: They’re your safety net. Listen to briefings on life jackets, emergency procedures, and no-go zones. In the Playpen’s crowded waters, their expertise prevents collisions.
• Stay Hydrated and Pace Yourself: With alcohol flowing, alternate drinks with water. Dehydration and overindulgence lead to accidents – fun responsibly!
• Use Railings and Stay Seated When Moving: Waves can jolt the boat; hold on to avoid falls. If swimming, enter water feet-first and use designated areas.
• Communicate and Watch Out for Each Other: Designate a sober buddy system. Report any unease promptly – safety is collective.
• Embrace the Fun Mindfully: Dance, mingle, but keep volumes reasonable to hear warnings. Tie up loose items to prevent them from becoming hazards.
  

Don’ts:

• Don’t Overload the Boat: Stick to capacity limits, which in general may mean 12 passengers, charter, captain and crew. Excess passengers on a bareboat charter is illegal. Excess weight affects stability, especially in choppy Playpen conditions.
• Do not flush anything down the WC, including toilet paper and sanitary towels – it will lead to instant overflowing of the toilet.
• Never ever jump off the bow of a boat – you may get entangled in the anchor.
• No Smoking or Open Flames Without Permission: Fire risks on boats are high – check with crew first.
• Don’t Litter: Keep the Playpen pristine; bag trash and dispose ashore. Environmental respect enhances everyone’s experience.
• Refrain from Aggressive Behavior: Crowded anchorages mean close neighbors – be courteous to avoid disputes.

Following these “do’s and don’ts on a boat at Playpen” fosters a harmonious atmosphere. Remember, the Playpen’s allure lies in its community spirit; safe behavior ensures repeat invites.
