| Fun for all in our group, age 70, 50 and 15! Agreat way to see the Bay the City and the Bridge.....I grew up in SF and never had the chance to see the City and Bay from this perspective. Now I Have lived in PA for forty years, and this provided a great Calif treat! |

| One day down at the Berkeley Marina, I was looking at the sailboats and thinking how ideal it would be to see the grand sights oft he San Francisco Bay under sail. I checked around with the harbormaster at the marina and with the friends of my son and his family who live in the area.. No one had a clue!
Then I happened on this small ad ( or was it an article) )in the local Where magazine for visitors. Wow, exactly what i was looking for . And it was a catamaran,.
Nice and stable. And spacious.
The boat sailed promptly at 3 o' clock.; for those of us from the East Coast who did not dress warmly enough to stand ourt on the deck, we could sit snugly indoors by the llarge windows.
Next visit I will take the sunset cruise. |

| Our first Adventurecat cruise was a Christmas gift. This second trip was for my South Carolina relatives' highlight of San Francisco. The crew was friendly and helpful, the views courtesy of Mother Nature, and the memory-making experience worth repeating.
We highly recommend Adventurecat for anyone who wants to see San Francisco from the best seat in the Bay. |

| I have been on the other cruise, the Blue and Red I think and it was crowded and not nearly as nice as this catamaran. There is no noise from the MOTOR AND THE SAIL WAS JUST DREAMY. WE GOT CLOSE TO SHORE OF A SMALL ISLAND and loved this tour. No shouted facts just a wonderful soothing ride. The boat man willingly answered questions and was so low key and nice he made the trip perfect. We went out on October 29th 2009 and it just required a light jacket. If you needed more cover, they had it on the boat. So great with that beautiful sail overhead. My 10 year old grandson thought it was the best part of our trip and so did I. |

| A friend and I were in the Bay area this weekend. We enjoyed the sunshine and warm temperatures. This weekend the sky was clear for our sail aboard the AdventureCat 65' catamaran.. It only had fifteen passengers and sailed without a narrated tour. The wind cooperated and this sleek twin-hulled boat moved out quickly. The captain took us around Alcatraz Island and then to a spectacular vantage point under the Golden Gate bridge that provided us with great photo opportunities. I really enjoyed the trip and would highly recommend it to anyone. Especially after sailing past the shoulder to shoulder crowds on the standard Bay cruise boats. Our trip was quietly driven by the wind which made the experience unique among tour boats. |

| If you decide to make this your way of experiencing the sights of San Francisco Bay, you are making the right choice. My daughter and I both loved the feel of the wind in the sails and enjoyed the movement of the boat over probably bigger waves than usual - that just added to the fun of the sail.
Fisherman's Wharf is easy to find, but we could not find any sign to Adventure Cat. However, you will find it if you go down to the docks on the RIGHT side of the wharf. You cannot miss the barking seals. Standing in front of the seals, just walk to the LEFT and you will find the modest sign for Adventure Cat. Be patient if someone does not come to the gate at 2:30 when you are asked to arrive for the 3:00 sail. One of the mates arrived at 2:40 and we boarded easily on time.
The hour and a half sail on the Bay was an incredible adventure! It was a windy day and the waves had small white caps, The catamaran glided along silently and quickly, letting us all on the boat enjoy the sights of the Bay, Alcatraz, the beautiful islands, the little communities along the shores and of course, The Golden Gate Bridge!! Spray in our faces as we leaned a bit into the wind, sights of wind surfers gliding undaunted over the waves! A great trip! A great memory of San Francisco! This must be the best way to be in San Francisco Bay! Really recommend this Adventure Cat experience!!!!! (And there is no motor rumbling in your ears, no one on a microphone explaining the obvious. It is just a quiet adventure!) |

| For me it was the highlight of the trip. The weather didn't cooperate but that didn't bother me. If I had known about the sunset cruise I would have taken it.
Really enjoyed the hour and a half.
