"This is basically it," John explains "There is loads of food in the fridge and cupboards There are fresh towels and linens in the basket in the left rooation officeOtherwise, the space is all yours"

"We will, thank you" Eric nods

"Oh, one last thing In case of eency, there is a lifeboat on the side of the yacht It’s easy to get down, you just step in and pull the chain The boat contains life jackets which you can slip on and pull the little red leaver to inflate"

We both nod, and John srinning and rubbing his hands together "Where do we start?"
