Astro Cruising

My wife and I have booked a solar eclipse cruise for our 25th wedding
anniversary in 2009. In addition to the eclipse, there will be
nightly lectures and star gazing. Having never taken such an
excursion before, I am looking for recommendations for the type of
equipment to bring. I am planning to bring binoculars and I'd like to
bring a Coronado PST, but I suspect the ship will be moving too much
for any tripod mounted scope to be used effectively. My interest is
more in observation than photography. Helpful suggestions would be
appreciated.
