Sail Magazine called her the "Innovative Boat of the Year", so break out of the stay-at-home cycle and explore our beautiful San Francisco Bay in style!
Impress your guests aboard a one-of-a-kind Wyliecat 65ft private sailing yacht with our competent captain and crew, who will take you where you want to go. With the wind in your hair and the fresh ocean air all around, this is the best entertainment option for everyone. So, let's go sailing!
The vessel is a truly exquisite blend of elegance and function, and has been outfitted for celebrating BIRTHDAYS, WEDDINGS, TEAM BUILDING, CUSTOMER APPRECIATIONS or just cruising on the bay with your friends and family. She's hearty, strong, sleek and fast, and will serve you well for any occasion. This is a large vessel (65ft) and we can normally comfortably handle 28-30 passengers for a day-sail or 6 passengers overnight.
Add to that our top-notch, experienced crew and you have a winning combination in your hands!
She is large with plenty of space for CORPORATE MEETING EVENTS while stylishly cruising around the Bay. Bring the distributed team together face-to-face in the fresh air.
Also serving as a 21st century marine science work-boat, the vessel is used by marine scientists for shark tagging and bay floor mapping, If you need to spend a week offshore conducting research, she is your go-to vessel with her well-stocked mini science laboratory on board. This is her "other life" - and you can be a part of it.
We welcome you to bring the food and BYOB! There is NO CORKING fee for your beer, seltzers, wine and champagne. We will provide dishes, cutlery, glasses and iced coolers to accept your drinks. All this is included for free. NO hard liquor (vodka, tequila, rum etc) is allowed on board as we do not have a license for it.
You can board in Marina Bay Yacht Harbor in Richmond, or at Pier 40 in San Francisco, but the pricing differs. When boarding in RICHMOND, you pay the price shown on this website + $100 Marina boarding fee. When boarding in SAN FRANCISCO, you pay the price shown on this website + $275 SF Port Authority tax.
So, come see what all the fuss is about, we look forward to welcoming you aboard and serving you and your guests!
We offer the following cruises:
1. 2 hour cruise - only in special circumstances. It takes the crew about 2 hours to prep the boat, to take it to the boarding location and return and clean the boat after the event. So we only accept 2 hour events if we already have another event on that same day.
2. 3 hour cruise
3. 4 hour cruise
4. 5/6 hour cruise
Full day cruises are very uncommon in this area. The normal cruise is in San Francisco bay, under and out of the Golden Gate bridge, then a little beyond the bridge and then they turn around and come back. There is not enough cruising area to do more than a half day cruise.
The only time that we sell a 5 hour cruise is when the guests want to get off the boat at Angel Island for lunch and to hike to the top of the island for a 360 degree view of the entire bay area. On these cruises there is about $400 extra to be paid to the Parks Department that owns the island.
