Experience an Unforgettable Sail on San Francisco Bay!
Join us for an introductory sailing adventure on the stunning San Francisco Bay on “Sugoi,” a Beneteau Oceanis 41 . We’ll depart from the Richmond Yacht Club, where you’ll sit back and enjoy breathtaking views of the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz, Angel Island, and the San Francisco skyline. Expect a mix of smooth sailing and exhilarating breezes as we navigate one of the most dynamic sailing destinations in the world.
We are offering four (4) sessions. There is no fee, but participants must be registered SOTE conference attendees. Please arrive 15-30 minutes in advance of your session. We will gather at the boat slip (B-13). See map link here: https://maps.app.goo.gl/VuZ3Cp5wfMLgrVfV9
What to Expect
- A relaxed yet adventurous sail, perfect for beginners and experienced sailors alike.
- Opportunities to take the helm and learn basic sailing techniques.
- Stunning coastal scenery and potential wildlife sightings, including seals, pelicans, and even dolphins.
- Expert guidance to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
How to Dress & What to Bring
- Layers are key! The Bay’s weather can change quickly—bring a light fleece, a windproof jacket, and a hat.
- Non-marking shoes with good grip (no black soles).
- Sunglasses & sunscreen (even on cloudy days, the reflection off the water can be strong).
- A small backpack for personal items like a water bottle and camera.
- Motion sickness prevention, if needed (the Bay can get choppy). If you do suffer from motion sickness, we recommend you take medication the evening before.
Come ready for a fun and memorable day on the water! ⛵
