   43’ Delta Express Cruiser Charter in San Francisco (certified for 46 passengers)

   My friends and I had a wonderful experience; Brent was a great captain and ensured smooth sailing throughout. Boat was spacious enough for the 25 of us to enjoy our dinner, move around and chat, and take awesome pictures. Overall had a really fun time and would 100% recommend to anyone looking to host a party.

   Safe & solid sailing catamaran - Green power! Stunning beauty & great location!

   ’Twas a gloomy day—your typical San Francisco midday gloom. Fog with teeth. Mist that clung like a secret. A chilled, still air that made the Bay look calm enough to trust… which is exactly how it gets you. Me and the missus had one objective: sail for the Golden Gate and get that clean, cinematic sweep under the red steel. Simple, right? Except nothing in that water is simple. The currents run their own agenda out there—silent, relentless, and utterly indifferent to whatever romantic plan you brought with you. Captain Jan sized up the day the way a seasoned operator reads a dossier. No drama. No bravado. Just facts. “Sure,” he said, steady as a man who’s seen worse, “but it’ll be a one-way trip in these currents.” That was the moment I knew we were in good hands. And don’t let his youthful appearance fool you—he’s not that young. Argh! The boat—ahem, catamaran—Hokahey, was clean, dialed-in, and quietly ready for business. There’s a cozy spot to keep you out of the wind when the Bay starts throwing attitude, a bathroom (critical), and most importantly… snacks. The kind of detail that tells you the person running the show has done this before and knows what matters when you’re out there with nothing but gray sky and cold water for company. The wind didn’t cooperate—no grand, billowing sails cutting through the fog like a movie poster. But here’s the thing: the engine is quiet and makes serious speed. No rattling chaos, no grinding clatter—just a smooth push through the chop like the vessel had its own mission and we were simply along for the ride. We tracked close to Alcatraz, its silhouette looming like a warning. Closed in on the Golden Gate, the great red arc appearing and disappearing through the mist like something you weren’t supposed to find. We chose not to explore Angel Island—call it discretion, call it timing, call it a tactical decision—and cruised the dock area as well, soaking in the city’s edge where steel, salt, and history all collide. No rush. No worries. No forced itinerary. Just a smooth, delightful, private cruise in the Bay—executed with calm precision and a kind of confidence you can’t fake. If you want a low-stress, high-quality sailing adventure that still feels like you earned it—Jan and the Hokahey are the way to go. Enjoy… and thanks, Jan.

   58' San Francisco Party Cruiser up to 49 passengers! Captain/crew included!

   Amazing boat party with about 40+ people on board. The crew was awesome and so attentive to our needs. They are very responsive and provide perfect details about the logistics, so everyone had a very easy time getting parking and finding the dock. I appreciate that they were responsive about concerns of rain. Thankfully it didn't rain. We had a perfect tour of all the SF landmarks (golden gate, bay bridge, Alcatraz, oracle park). Beautiful sunset, great sound system, and attentive crew. Couldn't have asked for a smoother and fun ride. Thank you to the crew and everyone involved!!

   Schock 35' Cruiser Sailboat in San Francisco Bay

   Captain Daniel and his crew made Mother’s Day so special for us! We sailed from Jack London Square to the San Francisco Bay. We enjoyed talking and spending time with everyone on board. Captain Daniel is very informative and kind. We look forward to booking more sail experiences with him! I highly recommend booking with Captain Daniel!

   Schock 35' Cruiser Sailboat in San Francisco Bay

   The sailboat is fast and well equipped; the skipper knows his way around and takes you sailing with the wind blowing from the right direction and with the best views of the San Francisco Bay area. it's the best way to get an idea of a huge touristic region.
