5.00Skilled skipper single-handled departure and return to slip. Sailing in harbor was serene, no real wind.
Sailboat sunset cruise

5.00This 2 hour cruise was so tranquil and peaceful. Our guide Adam was the kindest and humblest man. He really made our sail worth it. To top it off the cruise ended with an unexpected firework show on the navy ship. So cool to see from the water. I would definitely recommend this sail to everyone. Thanks again Adam for being so sweet and generous.
Make sure you get there...

5.00Make sure you get there early in case you have a hard time finding the dock. Great views of downtown and the coast. There was complementary wine and we saw a sea lion! Definitely recommend.

2.00Terrific, personable captain. So, great experience with him. But 3 total sodas and some water for 4 people (we don’t drink alcohol). Bean bags provided so old and worn out that beans were leaking out (fixed with masking tape by captain). Very uncomfortable.
Fun evening

5.00Great relaxing sail wothban experienced captain and minimal guests. It was fun and beautiful. We will definitely try this again and hopefully get another sunset. I like that we went to the point Loma side and not the usual downtown busy area.
