One thing I took was a heavy duty rain poncho. It came in handy every time we went out on the Zodiacs. While most people put their cameras away in their bags as the zodiac was in motion, mine was under the poncho I was able to grab quick shots when the zodiac was in motion where others had to dig their camera out of their camera bags. It also came in handy one day when we landed on a small island. The air was so misty one could have said we were in a rain forest. Water just flowed down my eye glasses. With the camera under the poncho and I quickly brought out for shooting then back under the poncho. Most people didn't bother shooting and left theirs in their bag to avoid the moisture. Ironically that day the moisture was so thick that my film camera briefly stopped functioning for about 10 minutes. Good advice. Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gelatino Posted February 10, 2020 Share #42 Posted February 10, 2020 (edited) Not sure how you can wear the life jacket over the poncho. Again, each passenger should receive a parka on arrival on board which is quite appropriate for the conditions you will encounter weither in zodiac or on trip.
