Covid-19 Policy

Covid-19 Policy for participation in 2025 SDSA rallies

Updated January 2025

Vaccination for Covid is currently not required to participate in SDSA rallies in 2025 but we continue to monitor CDC recommendations. The risk of severe illness is reduced in those who have the most current vaccines available. 

To keep you and others safe on passage, far from medical care, it is STRONGLY recommended that all participants follow CDC guidelines to keep themselves safe from infection.

New Covid shots are available to address the latest variants and are safe and effective for most individuals and age groups so we continue to urge you and your entire crew to receive the most current vaccines for COVID and other preventable diseases.

Note that these recommendations, are in place purely for crew safety while at sea and are not a reflection of policies in place at our destination countries. 

These recommendations will be revisited from time to time as circumstances require and is subject to change without notice.
