Yes, children and babies are always included in the guest counts. Please note that under California law, every child 13 years of age or younger on a moving recreational vessel of any length must be wearing a life jacket.
What type of clothing should I wear on a yacht charter?
Dress comfortably. Layers are advised as it can be windier and colder on the water than on land. Don´t forget your sunscreen and sunglasses.
Will I get seasick?
Unlike sailing in the open ocean, sailing within the San Francisco Bay is generally very smooth as it is well protected from wind and waves. We are not aggressive boaters and making the trip as comfortable as possible is our priority.
We have not had anyone get seasick on our trips however there are times where it can be choppy on the bay. If you have the tendency to get motion sick, please let the captain know and we will take that into consideration for your trip!
