6 Boat Rentals in Sausalito That You Shouldn't Miss

The Schooner Freda B sails out of historic downtown Sausalito, CA. This beautiful 80 foot schooner hosts a myriad of public sails; local history, Giants Games in McCovey Cove, ecological, sunset and city lights sails, to name just a few. The Schooner Freda B offers a local beers and wines bar. We are also well regarded for epicurean private sails, like our lobster feed on Angel Island, Giants Games in McCovey Cove, wine club tastings and corporate team building on the magnificent San Francisco Bay. San Francisco departures available.

Cat Ballou is a luxury sailing catamaran. She comes with 2 Coast Guard licensed crew, and can accommodate up to 12 passengers. We sail out of Sausalito. A tour on Cat Ballou lasts 3-4 hours, and takes you under the golden gate and bay bridges, past Alcatraz. Hands on participation is encouraged. Your party is the only party on the boat.

The experience begins at Bluewater Yacht Harbor in Sausalito, where you will receive a full safety briefing and tour of the boat. Departing the marina, we will cruise along the charming Sausalito foreshore, and under the iconic Golden Gate Bridge for a once in a lifetime, better than the postcard photo. We will then make our way through the heart of the San Francisco Bay with breathtaking 360 degree views of the Bay, including the San Francisco skyline, the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge, Treasure Island, the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, and Angel Island. Headed north through Racoon Strait, we will tour the Marin waterside with views of the opulent homes and brilliant vistas which dot the coastline of Belvedere and Tiburon. Finally, we slow it down and drop anchor in Richardson Bay to allow you to take in all you have seen and relax within the privacy of your own private yacht to enjoy views and whatever additional snacks or libations you have brought aboard.  www.shanutski.com
