Hello All,
Would anyone be so kind as to tell me what would be acceptible attire for a man on a formal evening during the Norway's transatlantic? Please excuse my ignorance of this matter, it's just that I've got to pick up some clothes beforehand and I don't think my motorcycle touring garb will suffice!
Thanks to any who reply, see the rest of you lucky souls on board?
Richard.

I think a dark business suit would be just fine and much more suitable than your motorcycle garb!

Have a super time.

I think that leathers with artistic studding on the jacket would be very appropriate.
Have a good trip.

In addition to being fast, you'd better be stock size - no time for alterations - and don't forget a shirt and tie

Happy cruisin'

Thanks to those who replied, I'm all set now. I'm in Augusta GA at the moment, so only have to travel north along the coast to meet the ship.
Cheers, Richard.
