Thanks for your interest in chartering our J/105. J/105’s are considered one of the ‘purest’ sailboats out there. They are the most popular keelboat racing class in every major sailing area in the USA. Fun, fast and very comfortable. Being fully restored, she always has freshly polished fiberglass and great sails! She’s perfect for sailing on SF Bay and there is no 35-40’ 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 25+ knots of wind until just after the sunset when the wind drops back to 15-18 knots. Please dress warm and in layers. It’s usually beautiful down at South Beach Harbor but will certainly get a bit cooler out around Alcatraz. You can bring food and beverages. Please no red wine (it stains) or hard liquor. We suggest box lunches as they’re self contained and easy to serve and clean. Please bring plastic or soft ice chests, the smaller the better. We are located next to Oracle Ballpark, Where the SF Giants play. There’s quite a few lots near South Beach Harbor and we’re minutes from CalTrain, Muni and Bart. Suggested Captain Gratuity is 10-15% of your event. We have other boats available on GetMyBoat too! Santa Cruz 50 - Up to 20 people starting at $450/hr https://www.getmyboat.com/trips/2Yqed6Y Beneteau 37 - Starts at $300/hr up to 6 people https://www.getmyboat.com/trips/6Yz023ND

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!

Garrett was awesome. We had an amazing excursion. Weather was perfect and Garrett gave us a perfect route to experience all of the Bay’s scenic beauty. We celebrated my wife’s birthday and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Garrett was engaging without being intrusive and gave our daughter a thrilling opportunity to captain under the GG Bridge. Couldn’t be happier with our choice.

Went out for a few hours with friends for my birthday, and it was a really special experience. Drew and Stacy were wonderful guides and a lot of fun. We learned a lot about the bay and sailing along the way, saw harbor porpoises and other wildlife, and just had an amazing time. Communication was great, price was fair, would definitely recommend this and hope to do it again soon.

Drew was great. Let us take the helm and easily kept the boat within the limits of the group. We had our 5 year old on board and Drew did a great job making it a comfortable ride for everyone. He was happy to educate us on some of the finer points of sailing as well which was great.

First off - we had such an amazing time full of laughs and good times. The boat is beautiful and intimate, great for a group of 6. Our Captain was friendly and knowledgeable, making the day that much better! We all recommend this boat and cannot wait to do it again!
