Description
Thanks for your interest in chartering our boat. This is by far the nicest, best maintained and fastest charter sailboat on the West Coast. She is the SF to world record holder…we broke that back in 1995 and our record still stands! She has been fully restored so she is in absolutely gorgeous condition. She is quite literally the most beautiful charter sailboat in the United States! She always has freshly varnished teak, polished fiberglass and great sails! She’s perfect for sailing on SF Bay and there is no sailboat faster than her.
Our normal conditions start out with winds of 5-10 knots between the hours of 9 am - 12 noon. from Noon to 2 pm the winds build to 20+ knots and after 3 pm it is very common for us to be sailing in 20+ knots of wind until just after the sunset when the wind drops back to 15-18 knots. The mellowest time to sail is definitely 11-2 or 12-3. If you’re looking for a fun, fast ride, book her 2-5. We have many options to make the sail as mellow or exciting as you’d like.
Boat Rules
Please dress warm and in layers. It’s always beautiful down at South Beach Harbor but will certainly get a bit cooler out around Alcatraz. Panoramic views abound from every point onboard the boat. We sail under the Bay Bridge twice and the Golden Gate will be right up front of your view. Depend on the tides and winds we often get under the Gate if we leave by 11am.
You can bring food and soft drinks or we can arrange for catering and beverages (including beer, wine & seltzers) from our galley! Our menu is attached to the photos section of the boat page.
We must, as per our state liquor license, sell the alcoholic beverages. We have beer & wine available for purchase onboard at $8 beverage (cash) or we can run one single tally on an approved credit card. We have a variety of premium beers, wines and seltzers.
We also do full catering with a Custom Box Lunch program & our NEW Salad & Pizza Menus. We'll handle the catering after you purchase the charter, if you so desire. Menus are attached here as pics.

Location and Destination Guide
Usually this boat operates around San Francisco, CA.
Ah San Francisco! The City by the Bay is a maritime dream and one of America’s most iconic cities. Sailing in San Francisco is probably the best way to experience her in all her glory…
Many people say that this is one of the most European feeling cities in America, and with historic streets and a vibe that is still very alternative, it’s easy to see why. And, with so much to see and do on the water, sailing in San Francisco is a uniquely thrilling experience.
