From Lisa N. (San Jose, CA):  I have never been on a sailboat before, or a boat in the SF bay at all.

It was by far the best way to see the bay area. I have lived here my whole life, yet have never seen it from this perspective. Beautiful views and great times. You get a lot of amazing pics from the boat as well!

Crew is amazing. Greg and Cathy were fun and friendly and made me and my friends feel safe and secure, even though it was all of our first time on a sailboat. They took us on a great route and we all had a blast!

Great day, great trip, highly recommended. Set Sail!!


From Stuart B. (San Francisco, CA/Scotland):  We first chartered with Mission Creek Sail Tours when we visited San Francisco on holiday in 2005. Since returning to live and work here in February 2008, we decided it'd be nice to repeat the experience since my sister-in-law was visiting us.

Greg and Cathy made us feel very welcome and after a short safety briefing we were off around the bay. We had a really great time and there'd obviously been a lot of thought into what makes the guests feel comfortable. There were toys for our son to play with (he's 16 months, so wasn't really able to focus on things) as well as sodas and bottled waters. The views were incredible. For me the bit I liked was that you could do as much or as little of the work of sailing as you wanted. I have to confess to hogging the helm a bit.

I'd definitely go back.

Cathy made sure there was a nice secure berth in the cabin for our son's nap.


From Ben S. (San Carlos, CA):  You took me on your boat around the Bay Area on my birthday in the beginning of July, my girlfriend had set it up for me. We had a blast and I really enjoyed it, so much that I told my boss about it and then she ended up taking her husband and family on the boat for her husbands birthday! I wish you all the best, and I will continue to send you referrals for your tours because it was such a magnificent time.


From Dr. Rocky D. (Rochester, MN):  Jan and I had a great time and we enjoyed meeting you and Cathy.  Thanks for a real treat.  (I am sorry you were so busy at the tiller with all the boats out in the bay that day.)

[Ed: Fleet Week wasn't all that bad this year. There were only around 20 bazillion boats on the Bay, not the typical 50 bazillion.]


From Kristin & John (Newport, RI):   We just wanted to thank you both for a great cruise.   It was the highlight of our vacation.  Everything about our sunset cruise was perfect, right down to  the delicious  wine and appetizers  !!!

From Erin & Daniel H. (Toronto, ON):  Thank you again; it was truly an awesome afternoon. You guys were a blast!

From Sarah A. (Riverside, CA):  I just wanted to thank you both again for our amazing sail on Saturday. We all had a great time and it was the perfect way to spend Ben's birthday. You were both very nice and hospitable. I could not have asked for a better experience. I will definitely recommend you to anyone that is looking to charter a boat in the bay.

From Andrew L. (Phoenix, AZ): I have been intending to write to you for some time to thank you for the perfect sailing day last August 12 when I proposed to my fiance, Susan.

[Ed: She said "Yes"!]

Believe me, my young friend, there is nothing — absolutely
nothing — half so much worth doing as simply messing about in boats.
