| We thoroughly enjoyed this cruise...The crew was knowledgeable and friendly. The head was clean and they had a well-stocked snack and beverage bar. There were even jackets for our use (which we needed!). |

| My husband and I loved this cruise, partly because it was a true sailing cruise. The boat is fast, handled by experienced crew, and comfortable even on a very windy day. Our previous "sailing " cruises in other places have been mostly powered by a motor with a sail up for effect, so if you like to sail it was pretty dull.
San Francisco bay contains many beautiful and compelling sights, including the city , the Golden Gate bridge, risk taking sailboarders and parasailers, seals, and the surrounding hills.
The crew were personable,responsive to requests for favorite CDs to play in the cabin, and fun to talk to. Since it was a chilly day, most of us used the warm jackets thoughtfully supplied for the cruise.
I am subject to seasickness, but didn't have any perhaps because the boat doesn't heel. That was a very pleasant surprise.
We will definitely do this again on our next trip to the city. |

| The tour was wonderful! Thanks for the jackets - would have been miserable without them. The nets were awesome, fun ride. Definitely bringing my family when they come to visit. |

| Excellent way to get up close to Alcatraz and experience the stiff breezes in the bay going out to the Golden Gate. Captain and crew are friendly and piloted our craft in +30 knots with ease. I enjoyed this for the actual sailing even though it was cold and I got a little wet from a wave standing at the bow. Opportunities for photo's from a different perspective was also nice. |

| We really enjoyed the trip! The weather was perfect (more than 100 degrees last week-end). The moment we preferred was when the boat was under the GG bridge. |

| I would recommend this cruise to anyone local or as a tourist.
Pros: Great views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, San Francisco skyline, etc. Hostess was a great personality, and very friendly. They have jackets on board if you get cold. The boat is clean and newer. The equipment seemed very well-maintained. The cost is quite reasonable. The other passengers were friendly and fun-loving. If you love the wind and the water - this is the tour for you!
Opportunities for improvement: They do not allow ANY outside beverages (felt like I was committing a crime secretly sneaking sips from my water bottle). The cruise started a little late but ended almost on time - so it felt like they skimped a bit on the advertised length of 1.5 hours. The captain is quite young, and didn't want us to sit on the life preservers or even have them by our side. It was either put them on or stow them in the seat compartment inside the boat. Well we tried them on, and they are very bulky, restrictive, and uncomfortable. So, we opted for "stowed in the boat". Not very comforting for someone who is a little insecure about being on the water. |
