Mtngirl2 Posted March 13, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 13, 2017 I will be on the Veendam this spring and was wondering if the bathtubs have a plastic bath mat? I am always afraid of slipping in the tub, and if there is none, I will bring my own. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hang on if the seas get rough. That is the worst time I worry about, standing in shower with slippery soap, when the ship takes some dips and rolls.

wander Posted March 13, 2017 #4 Share Posted March 13, 2017 The grab bars in all showers or tubs on HAL ships I have sailed on are great! Sturdy and well placed for at least my use. Many a shower done with one hand clutching a grab bar and one for the soap bar. (Actually, that is one reason in rough waters I use the gel provided - much easier to squirt onto a cloth than soap-up the cloth one handed.) :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OlsSalt Posted March 13, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 13, 2017 The time to be sure you have good footing is when you step out of the tub with your wet feet and on to the tile bathroom floor, which may also be wet if someone else used the tub/shower ahead of you. So be sure you have the towel floor mat well previously in place when you step out and over the high tub wall. Best to not let go of the grab bar with one hand, until you firmly planted both feet outside the tub on the floor mat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
