BOAT Trip Pages
While there are common threads to all of our trips, some are unique.
- General Trip Information will give you the nitty-gritty that applies to all our trips (like what we eat, what it’s like out there, where we go, and similar).
- Specific Trip Information covers anything unique to your trip.

Gear Info
We often stay that trips are a combination of the right gear, food, and people.
We’ll take care of a lot of gear, but you’ll need to bring the right stuff. We often say “come ready for gym class” but you’ll see specifics below.
