Come experience the "Catamaran Difference". We have over 37 years of experience taking guests sailing in San Diego, and you will feel welcome right away on our cats. 2.5 hours is a perfect amount of time to cover a larger area, and see more beautiful sights. During our sail we will explore the harbor, and sight see areas such as the downtown skyline, Coronado Bay Bridge, the Embarcadero, and Midway aircraft carrier. We always see sea lions, seabirds, and often dolphins. Since we only take small groups of 6 total passengers, you'll feel like you're just out sailing with friends. Since we truly love to sail, we turn off the motor as soon as possible so you can just experience the quiet of the wind in the sails. Our fun catamarans are very wide and spacious, and they are comfortable for all ages of guests. There are several seating areas on the boats to find your perfect spot. Of course there are convenient bathroom facilities aboard. If you would like to take the wheel, and feel the power in the sails, you are welcome. We may not be the cheapest option, but my guys are "World Class", and are paid well. You'll get a great vibe on the boat right away, and make some great memories.

As a lifelong competitive sailor I love creating a private yacht style experience for our guests. We aim for extremely consistent approachable experiences exploring all the lesser seen parts of San Diego.
