| The staff were skilled and friendly and the breezes brisk. Thank Heaven they had jackets aboard, as it was quite chilly! |

| Wish it was 2 and 1/2 hour sail.
Sail past the Golden Gate and around Alcatraz then over to Angel Island.
Will pay for tickets directly to avoid a service charge. |

Enjoyable trip

| It was very enjoyable, but I was looking for a little more of a thrill. I would have liked a little more speed and excitement. |

| This was the first time I've sailed on the bay and I really enjoyed it. I've been on a number of other boat cruises on the bay and often felt seasick and/or somewhat assaulted by the wind and waves. This was a really pleasant sail under the golden gate bridge and it wasn't until we were on the ocean side of the bridge that I noticed the waves. The crew was really cool and friendly and there were the right number of people on the boat so it wasn't too crowded. I think the value for the money is fantastic, and it's a great way to see the bay and golden gate bridge--especially with someone from out of town. |

| There were seven in our group, two teenagers, two 20 somethings and three 40 somethings. We all enjoyed the trip. The crew was wonderful and the other guests were so sweet. It was a real treat for our family from Virginia Beach, we got lots of great pictures! I totally recommend this outing! |

| I grew up in the Bay area and my wife had never been north of LA, she is an avid sailor so I figured a cruise around the Bay would be a perfect way to spend the day and seeing the sites.
I get sea sick on Kayaks, the Catamaran was so smooth even when the water was a little rough, I was fine.
The day was amazing and the Crew was great!
WAY BETTER than the other "Fleets" that power you around! |

| The captain and crew were terrific, the boat is in excellent condition and the ride is exhilarating. My 18-year-old son said he'd like to do it again sometime soon. It's a great way to see Alcatraz (without the crowds), a unique perspective of the Golden Gate Bridge, and the city shoreline...something intoxicating about flying along at 20 knots with the fresh air in your face. We'll definitely be back. |

| I always bring my visitors on the Adventure Cat and recommend it to friends with people visiting, much more comfortable way to cruise the bay than the big old Blue & Gold Fleet tour and very reasonably priced too. |

| Great staff, great boat, great trip.
Despite sub-par weather, the trip was excellent. I would recommend to all to try this great trip. Beautiful views and relaxing experience. Kids 7 and 9 loved it!
Be careful if you sit up front as spray can be extreme. I was personally soaked to the bone by an early splash. But even though this happen, I still had a great time. Had I been smarter and heeded the captain's recommendations to move back some I would have stayed dry and had an even better time.
Don't miss this while in San Francisco. |

Catamaran immensely better than ferry boats

| My brother and his wife and 3-year old where in town. Couldn't get tickets to Alcatraz, so was considering a Alcatraz-themed bay cruise. So glad I did this instead. I've been on those ferry/bay cruise boats and they can't even compete with the thrill of being on a catamaran. Highly recommend. |
