Relax with a sail on the Boat for teambuilding or a sunset trip and then have dinner at one of the many convenient restaurants in Alameda.
This 50-foot ketch was built for cruising in comfort. Passengers can spread out on her ample deck to take in the sights, stay high and dry in the center cockpit, or duck below and lounge in the large, cushioned salon and galley. Yet she's no slouch under sail. With her three sails aloft, she cuts swiftly and confidently through the water no matter what winds and waves come her way.
This beautiful boat was refitted in the winter of 2011-12 to ensure charter guests' comfort, safety, and enjoyment. On deck, the Boat has many comfortable places to sit or even recline, perhaps with a chilled glass of Chardonnay or frosty microbrew in hand. Below deck, she boasts ample headroom, a large salon with seating for several people, and a galley with a sink, table, and refrigerator.
Sailing upwind, perhaps heading toward the Golden Gate Bridge on a summer afternoon, she'll heel over a bit and give passengers a thrill. Downwind she'll flatten out and give passengers a breather -- a good time to take in the sights of San Francisco's cityfront or scenic Angel Island.
