Luxurious Scattering of Ashes

A last goodbye to your loved ones

Cruise Overview

Many people, either for reasons of their faith or from past association with the sea, wish to have their ashes scattered at sea.

Galleon Cruises can take you, your friends or loved ones out from Ramsgate Harbour. The Mona Lisa is ideal for such a service. She is a 33ft Cruiser and one of the most comfortable and stable boats in her class. She has an easy access platform on the stern of the vessel, fully enclosed covers and upper deck heating.

“In view of such risks, there are very few places around the coast where sea burials are permitted. Indeed, the licensing authority normally recommends that, rather than burial of the body at sea, consideration should be given to the scattering at sea of cremation ashes. This alternative does not require a licence issued under the Food and Environment Protection Act 1985”

  • £25 pp up to a maximum of 6 passengers
    *Note there is a minimum charge of £100

Cruise Details

Boarding Galleon Cruises’ luxurious Mona Lisa we will set sail from Ramsgate marina, where in a suitable position we will turn the Mona Lisa’s engines off and gentle drift to the sound of the ocean. From the rear of the vessel you can scatter the ashes into the sea and any floral tributes, bouquets or other memorable items.

When you are ready, we will set sail back to Ramsgate marina.

The skipper will issue you with a date/time and position card, of where the ashes were laid to rest.

You can bring any music with you, in which we can play out on the vessels sound system as and when you want.

Through the winter months the vessel will have all its covers fitted, so the wheelhouse will be enclose and also the upperdeck heaters will be switched on.

*If this package does not suit your requirements let us know as we are happy to quote for onboard catering, or even re positioning the vessel to another location.
