“I've always wanted to show my daughter what it feels like to sail... instead of motor boating and this tour perfectly captured that experience. Will is a great host as well.... we took turns steering the boat and working the lines. The boat glided thru the waters, and heeled a lot of times....it was exciting for everyone. SF is a great place to sail because there are so many things to look at. Towards the end, we sat at the front of the boat and Will took us along the sausalito downtown and coast... it was a great finish. The boat was clean and big.... and safe! Highly recommended.”
