The Best Boat Rentals Near Santa Cruz

Welcome aboard Minerva – A Rare Cruise on a Classic Wooden Yacht

Renting this classic boat and having Captain Luis at the helm was a day to remember. Luis is great on responding to any questions you might have prior to your special day. Luis is very easy to talk to when you're on the boat as well. 2-Thumbs up for me, I'll rent from him again.

Fantastic experience! Captain Thomas did a great job throughout: - had clear & timely communication beforehand - once boarded, set clear expectations on how the trip would go (i.e. when to expect wind, choppy vs. calm waters, best time for photos, safety info, etc) - checked in as the trip progressed to ensure our experience was positive I'm sure we'll work with him again in the future. Thank you captain Tom & captain Pat! Cheers Charles

53' Charter Boat in San Francisco (certified for 44 passengers)

We hired Captain Melynda and her crew to take our family out to sea for our grandfather’s ashes to be spread. The boat experience was our family gathering and memorial for our Naval Lieutenant’s last wishes to be at sea. It was the perfect boating day, and the boat had plenty of space inside and out. My family used every area of the boat for photos, food, memorial, and taking in all the sites. Melynda had an idea of where to go, and we didn’t have to worry about anything. The boat has bathrooms and plenty of space to celebrate any gathering. Thank you! We loved seeing the Giants stadium and Chase Center! Tons of boats on the water and I felt like we were on the most comfortable one! Unforgettable and I researched so many different options to honor my grandfather, and I’m so glad I didn’t hesitate to book Melynda and her boat!

Our night on the boat with Brian and his crew was absolutely amazing and so stress-free! They helped me load in and load out and were so kind, nice, all the things! I highly recommend! We will be back for more boat adventures!

FAST J/105 Sailing Yacht Charter Downtown San Francisco, California!

We had an unforgettable boat experience with Noah today in San Francisco! Not only was the trip smooth and fun, but it was also incredibly educational. Noah shared so much interesting knowledge about the Bay, and we were lucky enough to spot dolphins and sea lions along the way! One of the highlights was when our little one got to co-drive the boat, Noah made it such a special moment. He was kind, encouraging, and truly inspiring. You can tell boating is in his heart, and his passion made the entire experience even more meaningful. We can’t recommend this adventure enough!
