Would you like to scatter the cremated remains of your loved
ones at sea aboard a yacht, in a private and respectful ceremony,
without being watched and far from bystanders?.
Burials at sea to scatter your loved one's ashes aboard a yacht.
What
kind of burial at sea do we offer? We provide the family with a yacht
calledEl
Ultimo Adios ("The Last Goodbye") to carry
out our burials at sea. The yacht is 9 metres long and 3 metres
in breadth and she has got excellent characteristics for this
ceremony.
A ceremony like this one requires solemnity and privacy. The family
has to feel comfortable and, more important, far from curious
people.
How
do we carry out this service? First of all, the sea has to
be calm and there must be good weather conditions, it must not
be windy. If weather conditions are bad, we will reschedule
the scattering.
The yacht is very stable. She is propelled by two silent and
powerful petrol engines that do not give off fumes or smoke
inside the yacht, which is good for those people who suffer
from seasickness.
We do not move away from the shore, since it is not necessary.
We sail to a maximum of 6 nautical miles off shore.
Time from departure to return to the harbour is approximately
two hours.
The ashes will be scattered by a member of the family or by
the crew if the family wishes so.
The maximum number of people who can get on board is six. In
very special cases, if there are not very young or very old
people in those present, we can carry up to seven people.
How
much do we charge for this service? We do not want to take any profit
by offering this service. We charge 250,00 €, which is the
cost price for the maintenance of the yacht, petrol, cleaning,
etc.
What
should people wear? It is compulsory to wear flat
shoes with non-skid soles or light coloured trainers with rubber
soles.
Who
are we? We are a group of people who have
noticed that there is very little information on this subject.
There are many families who decide to scatter their loved one's
ashes at sea and have lots of difficulties to do so because they
do not find the necessary means to do it.
For this reason we would like to offer you this innovatory burial
at sea.
