Bzygirl66 Posted September 15, 2004 #1 Share Posted September 15, 2004 I will be sailing the Elation in November. We will be using tender boats when we arrive in Belize. My question is...how do you get onto the tender boats? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
springtxbill Posted September 15, 2004 #2 Share Posted September 15, 2004 Down on the first deck above the waterline is a ramp that folds out of the ship to form a little dock for the tender to tie up to. You then just walk out of the ship onto this platform and step onto the tender.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmorejj Posted September 15, 2004 #3 Share Posted September 15, 2004 Be prepared for a long (30 mins) tender ride in Belize. They use local power boats, not the ships tenders. Belize is surrounded by the 2nd largest reef in the world and ships have to stay a good distance from the pier. We loved Belize and hope you do too....jean :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bzygirl66 Posted September 15, 2004 Author #4 Share Posted September 15, 2004 Thank you for your responses. My sister was in the navy and was telling me we would have to climb down a rope ladder to the tender!!! I just knew there had to be something better. Thank you and God bless! C.
