Spinnaker Sailing SF – J/105 FAST & FUN!
Spinnaker Sailing SF – J/105 FAST & FUN!
Set sail on San Francisco Bay aboard our fully restored 2005 J/Boats J/105 (restored 2025), designed for thrilling, fast, and comfortable sailing for up to 6 guests. J/105s are considered one of the ‘purest’ sailboats out there and are the most popular keelboat racing class in every major sailing area in the USA. Fun, fast, and very comfortable, our boat always features freshly polished fiberglass and great sails. She’s perfect for sailing on SF Bay, and there is no 35-40’ sailboat faster than her. Whether you’re after a relaxing cruise or an exhilarating adventure, this classic sailboat delivers unforgettable views of the Bay Bridge, Alcatraz, and the city skyline.
Powered by a 20 HP Yanmar engine (max 7 knots) and expertly handled by Captain Drew Harper, a specialist in sailing, yacht, and catamaran tours, you’re in safe and experienced hands. Onboard amenities include one cabin, full bath, toilet, life jackets, GPS, VHF radio, and wheel steering. Optional drinks, snacks, and lunch make your trip effortless and enjoyable. Alcohol and children are welcome; glass bottles are allowed.
Feel the wind and freedom of the Bay as you glide across the water—perfect for photography, celebrations, or a memorable day with friends and family. Safety is a priority, with all necessary features onboard for peace of mind.
Please dress warm and in layers. It’s usually beautiful at South Beach Harbor but will get cooler out around Alcatraz. You may bring food and beverages (please, no red wine or hard liquor). We suggest box lunches, which are self-contained and easy to serve and clean. Bring plastic or soft ice chests—the smaller, the better.
Suggested Captain Gratuity: 10-15% of your event.
