Your sailing charter on San Francisco Bay will be just your group. We take up to six passengers on Gentle Storm, a fast and roomy Catalina 42. A charter is only $200 per hour- plus you get a copy of A layer of Darkness, a crime novel set in San Francisco, written by your skipper. Or you may want the second installment of the series, China Basin.

We sail out of Sausalito, with free parking just steps from the boat.  Sausalito is quite simply the best and most scenic place to begin and end your sailing day.

Whale watching

A longer day could include the half Way to half Moon Bay trip, out to where Grey and Humpback whales have been sighted. Call or email for details for this all day adventure.
