A Family Sailing Discovery


Set sail across the sparkling San Francisco Bay with your family of up to six sailors for a full day of adventure aboard “Mission Blue” a sleek racer-cruiser, a Beneteau First 44. This is not a passive sightseeing cruise. It is an active, exhilarating experience where kids can watch the crew trim sails, spot sea lions lounging on buoys, and feel the thrill of the boat leaning into the breeze as the skyline unfolds around you.
Launching from either Brisbane or South Beach, you will spend the day exploring the most iconic sights from a perspective few get to enjoy. Sail past the San Francisco waterfront, sweep beneath the Golden Gate Bridge, and cruise toward Sausalito with postcard views at every turn. Depending on the wind and the group’s energy, the route may include highlights like Alcatraz or Angel Island, with plenty of opportunities to relax, laugh, and take unforgettable family photos.

Around lunchtime, the adventure slows just enough to enjoy finger foods and refreshing drinks on board. Whether the boat pauses near Angel Island for a peaceful break or continues on a smooth, steady course, it is the perfect moment to refuel and share stories while surrounded by open water and fresh sea air.

Designed for those who love movement, nature, and hands-on experiences, this day is ideal for sporty families who enjoy being part of the action. The boat blends comfort with performance, offering excitement without sacrificing safety. With experienced sailors on board, parents and kids discover the magic of being out on the Bay, learning the rhythm of the wind and waves.

This is a rare chance to experience San Francisco from its most breathtaking angle and to create memories that will be talked about long after the sails are lowered.
