The boat

Dolphin Pal is a beautiful cruising sail yacht that won the Best Midsize Cruiser title in Cruise World's Boat of the Year, when it was released. Comfortable and stylish, very spacious inside the cabin, in the cockpit and on deck, it provides endless memorable adventures cruising the San Francisco Bay and beyond. Wide and spacious deck and cockpit, thanks to the wide beam, excellent handling and maneuverability, gorgeous modern designer style interior, by Nauta, powerful under sail and upgraded motor, this yacht will make you smile. Dolphin Pal boasts 1 bright, airy and roomy king size berth aft and queen size V-berth forward, a head with separate shower to starboard at the foot of the companionway, and a spacious, L-shape galley to port. Several opening ports and hatches provide ample ventilation and light, and the luster of the moabi mahogany woodwork is accented by off-white upholstery and panels throughout the saloon, making for airy and cheery surroundings throughout. A roller-furling headsail and standard in-mast furling main make setting and dousing sails a simple task. Twin helm wheels provide good visibility of the rig on either tack.

NOTE 1: please specify what is your sailing certifications/experience when booking; or your captain's sailing certifications/experience, if you hire a captain.

NOTE 2: If you hire a captain, per US Coast Guard (USCG) regulations, he/she must have a "six-pack" USCG captain license at a minimum, allowing him/her to captain a boat with 6 passengers maximum. If the captain does not have a six-pack USCG license he/she is exposed to significant liabilities. If something happens to the boat or to its passengers, the captain is responsible and if the captain does not have the six-pack license it's as if one is driving a rental car without a driver’s license.

NOTE 3: no alcohol, no "party" onboard;
