Your trip will begin by checking in at Gate B, Pier 39 fifteen minutes prior to departure (Gate B is located behind the Aquarium of the Bay on the east side of Pier 39 close to The Embarcadero). Upon departure, we will introduce the crew, have a safety brief, and share some history about the yacht. Then it is time hoist the sail and go yachting! The Express Sail is our best value option and will operate with reduced sail area making it more family friendly. This sail will take place on an afternoon when the current is flowing out of the Bay and the winds will be blowing into the Bay. Under these wind against current conditions, the yacht performs best with reduced square footage
Cancellation Policy
For a full refund, cancel at least 24 hours before the scheduled departure time.

Great view and crew. My favorite part is when the engine goes off and it is just you, the wind, and the water. Wow!!

Awesome experience. If it’s the only activity you do in SAN Francisco this is the one, especially if the sun is shining and the winds blowing. Great experienced crew, letting you participate as much or as little as you like, from taking the wheel to grinding the sails up and down. You felt like you were aboard an America’s Cup yacht. Enjoy the best experience you can do in SAN Francisco.
