Excellent yacht for the SF Bay! Wind power/green clean fun! Stable Catamaran with large enclosed main salon with amazing views! In Richmond, CA
This was an incredible experience for my family and me and we will never forget the joy and serenity of sailing on Hokahey with Jan and his lovely wife, Ellen. Jan and Ellen made us feel welcome and at ease from the moment we met them. In addition to being a very experienced and safe captain, Jan has a deep appreciation for and connection with the bay and the sea. Great day on the water! Thank you Jan and Ellen!!

Sail San Francisco Bay On 51' Morgan Out Island Ketch with Captain
Captain Ed and Crew where outstanding. The boat was a perfect size and well maintained and we had a wonderful sail. I've sailed with several different charter boats out of Sausalito and highly recommend this one! Thanks! We will be back.

Rent the 38' Delta Fishing Boat in San Francisco (Captained Only)
Super positive experience! Captains were very nice and made sure we had the best possible ride. Very communicative and understanding about any last minute delays or issues. Made sure we knew all the safety rules before we departed which made everyone feel safe. Took us wherever we wanted to go and made sure we were able to capture the moments made! Would definitely book again!

44ft Golden Island Motor Yacht Charter in Sausalito, California
This is one of the most wonderful experiences I've had lately. Captain Timothy and Shannon were simply great. They're friendly, funny, helpful, considerate while also respecting the customers' privacy. They have all the stuff that the guests would need for a dine in, and all mounts/holders yacht friendly. I planned spending the day in the yacht for my spouse's bday and he was mindblown. Captain Timothy offered and helped him with the champagne sword, and he just loved it. There would cheaper yacht options available, but I was keen on this one since it has lot of amenities.i wanted...cabin, speakers, microwave, refrigerator, heaters, blankets,cutlety etc. It was worth every penny, and I definitely highly recommend this one to anyone who wants an amazing dayout experience.
