Captained Sailing Charters on the San Francisco Bay
Get out onto the Bay Real Sailing! From raising the sails to tying back up at the dock we will be WIND POWERED ONLY! No exhaust and no engine vibration or noise. (There is a motor and if conditions require we will even use it. This happens about once a month :) Feral is a vintage/ classic boat so you will be getting an authentic experience. Fun without plastic frills:)Feral is a 40ft double ended sloop. She has won many races in her life and many of those races were before my life started! She has a modern hull design (kind of) but is very traditional above the water line. Other than nav lights we will be using oil lamps just like the old days! All Sails are Wind Powered Only! Traditional and real sailing! You will be surrounded by wood and water with only the wind (usually) to move us. Watch first hand what years of practice and dedication looks like as we drift out of the slip and set sail for the bay! Feral is painted blue now. Varnishing isn't my thing :) If you have any questions, we can answer those through GetMyBoat’s messaging platform before you pay.

Captain Dan was great. He has a ton of experience, great knowledge of the SF bay and landmarks. He puts you at ease if it's your first time on a sailboat. Also great personality and was able to manage the sailing duties and entertain the group.

Magical and divine... It was our boy friends pre-wedding celebration.. and Dan made it truly special. Dan was genuine, easy and thoughtful in everything he said and did for us. The weather was too perfect to be true and it was my first time from berkeley marina. Thanks Dan. Will be back for more.🤗
